Homestead Pullover
Rustic, durable, and hard wearing Homestead yarn was the inspiration for this design. Simple raglan pullover with just enough texture and interest keeps the pattern enjoyable without being too intricate. Latvian Braids and Tubular Bind Off add a polished finishing to the ribbing. At an Aran weight gauge this sweater practically knits itself. Neutral colors work well for an everyday pullover that is cozy and comfortable to wear.
