STRIPED TURTLENECK

Vogue Knitting Holiday 2006 #30
Design by Brandon Mably

One look at the way the intarsia pattern flows from one earthen tone to the next, and it’s easy to understand why Brandon Mably calls his boxy pullover “Lava.” Banded ribbing at the edges and fold-back turtleneck define the oversized body.
