Knitting this sweater came as a surprise even to myself. When I first saw the Venezia Pullover pattern by Eunny Jang in the magazine Interweave Knits – Winter 2006. I was not tempted at all. Than one evening I was looking through my faves in Ravelry and guess what ?! I had faved the Venezia pattern twice – without noticing…. The trigger for me was that the pullover designs in Ravelry only used two colours. This I think makes the beautiful figurative pattern stand out.

Well having faved it twice in Ravelry had to be sign. I have really enjoyed knitting this sweater and I though that figurative pattern was really nice and easy to do.

The yarn I used for this version of the Venezia Pullover is Palino – soft merino wool Superwash from Hjertegarn. This is really nice yarn to knit with…But and there is a bit BUT the garment will grow after wash with this yarn – and blocking is not an option (so take this into consideration before starting out).

I have changed the neckline from the original pattern and waist is made by scaling down the needle size twice.
