Stella - the all-around pullover knitting pattern

Stella, released as part of the Hudson and West Autumn / Winter 2021 collection, features a cross-stitch pattern that runs up the front and around the back hem. The resulting pullover pairs beautifully with jeans, skirts, or can be layered over your favorite dress.

The simple stitch detail for the Stella pullover is easily memorized, and the optional tubular cast-on and bind-off offer the fine finishing you've come to expect from a One Wild Designs pattern. The yarn used is Forge - from Hudson and West - and it's stitch crisp definition shines in this raglan pullover.

Stella is knit from the bottom up in pieces and seamed. The neckline is picked up after seaming and worked in the round.
