​Three-Colored Oversize Pullover

You’ll need:

150 (150) 200g of turquoise yarn (83% cotton, 17% polyamide; 130m/50g);

100 (150) 150g of the same yarn, but in yellow color;

100 (150) 150g of the same yarn, but in cream color;

Knitting needles 4 and 5;

Circular knitting needles 4.

Used Patterns

1 x 1 rib: work in straight and reversed directions (the quantity of sts is even).

RS rows: 1 selvage st, * 1 cross knit st, 1 purl*, 1 selvage st;

WS rows: 1 selvage st, * 1 knit st, 1 cross purl*, 1 selvage st.

Circle rows: * 1 knit st, * 1 cross purl*.

Relief pattern: the quantity of sts is multiple 4 + 2 selvage sts), work due to the scheme, in which only RS rows are stated. Make WS rows as purls. Start with sts before pattern repeat, pattern repeat, finish with sts after pattern repeat. Make 1^st-8^th rows x 8 times = 64 rows, then, make 65^th-72^nd rows x once, decrease 1 st from both sides in every RS row, then, repeat 65^th-72^nd rows, continue making decrease due to the pattern.

Stitches control: relief pattern: 17 sts x 21,5 rows = 10 x 10 cm.

Instructions

Back

Cast on 86 (94) 102 sts and make 2 cm with rib for lower placket. Then, continue work with relief pattern with yellow yarn. In 26 cm = 56 rows from lower placket, continue work with beige yarn. For raglan chamfers, in 30 cm = 64^th row (WS) from lower placket, bind off 1 x 2 sts from both sides = 82 (90) 98 sts. Then, make raglan chamfers due to the scheme from the 65^th row and bind off 22 (26) 30 x 1 st in every 2^nd row from both sides. In 50 cm 108 rows (54 cm = 116 rows) 57,5 cm = 124 rows from the set-up row, leave the rest 38 sts for neck-hole.

Front

Make in the same way, as back.

Sleeves

Cast on 54 (60) 64 sts and work with rib for 2 cm for lower placket, increase 14 (18) 22 sts in the last WS row = 70 (78) 86 sts. Then, continue work with relief pattern with turquoise yarn. For raglan chamfers, in 22,5 cm = in the 48^th row (18,5 cm = in the 40^th row) 15 cm = in the 32^nd row from lower placket, bind off 1 x 2 sts from both sides = 66 (74) 82 sts. Then, for raglan chamfers, continue work in the same way, as for back, make decreases for all sizes from the 65^th row and decrease 22 (26) 30 x 1 st in every 2^nd row from both sides. In 42,5 cm = 92 rows from lower placket, leave the rest 22 sts.
