About
The Fifty Below Color Block Pullover is a cute, chunky sweater designed to be a part of all your winter adventures. Playfully plush and oh-so-cozy, this sweater is intended to stand out like a painting against the glistening white canvas of a snowy mountain. Inspired by the playful boldness of winter ski outfits that never hold back on color or style, this adorably unpretentious sweater is chock full of character from its quirky texture to the cheerful color blocking. The whimsical two-tone effect provides you with an opportunity to get creative and design your own color pattern. If ever there was a time to go crazy with color, it’s right now, with this sweater. Fifty Below begs to be worn on your next snowy outing, and pairs best with ice skates or ski poles.

Substitute with any other category #5, bulky-weight yarn that matches gauge. One of the reasons this yarn works so well in this sweater without feeling too heavy or dense is because it’s composed of two slinky fibers—Merino wool and baby alpaca—that are gently twisted to create a fluffy, airy yarn.
Hook: Size U.S. K/10½ (6.5 mm) or size needed to obtain gauge
Notions: Tapestry needle, several locking stitch markers
