A delicate play of texture and material, bold striping and matching fingerless gloves make Gilda fun to knit and to wear. This airy pullover in light fingering yarn offers a casual and comfortable fit. It features two similar stitch patterns that complement each other and stand out subtly from the large Stockinette stripes, worked in a smoother yarn. |
The pattern is available in the form of digital PDF files, in both English and Italian.

The design on the bottom stripes showcases an acceleration of the same base motif, by progressing from the wider diamond pattern to the narrower chevron seed pattern, that is also repeated on the sleeves.
A high crew neck, long and straight body and low-cut raglan create a casual shaping, that nevertheless looks flattering by the aid of shorter and fitted sleeves and low-cut armholes. The combination of two fine yarns, different in texture and material, produces a delicate fabric that still shows off the stitch patterns beautifully. But the main feature of this garment are the matching, fingerless colour-block gloves or arm-warmers: They are as eye-catching as they are practical! All techniques and methods are either explained in the pattern itself with attached photo tutorials, or links are provided that point to web-tutorials. |
