Are you ready for a new design that has quite literally been years in the making?!? It was love at first sight when we saw Paula Pereira’s @paulapkl sketches for the Geofade Pullover, and we are thrilled to present it to the world.

This cropped, modern sweater in 5 colors features Paula’s signature “Petite Boxy” style. With comfortable positive ease in the body, and 9 sizes from XS-5X, you’ll have plenty of options to choose from.

Designed in heavenly @myak_fibers Tibetan Cloud, this 100% Tibetan sheep wool is ethically sourced and traceable back to the flock. It comes exclusively from an ancient breed of Tibetan sheep that roam freely on the grassland of the Tibetan Plateau, so you will feel good knowing you’re supporting a healthy ecosystem and happy sheep. With lovely stitch definition and outstanding softness, every stitch is a delight. And with mYak’s vibrant colors, you might have to knit more than 1 (or 2. Is 3 too many? I didn’t think so.)

Yarn requirements for Tibetan Cloud
Sizes XS-L (busts 26-42”/65-105 cm) Require 3 skeins main color
Sizes XL- 3XL require 4 skeins of main color
Sizes 4 XL- 5 XL require 5 skeins of main color

And all sizes will need 1 skein each of 4 contrast colors. If you are lucky enough to have a box of mYak mini skeins these provide enough yarn for three of the contrast colors (you’ll need a full skein of one contrast color - in our sample the white)

Yarn requirements in yardage are shown in the schematic image.

A note on pricing
We believe an excellently written, expertly graded pattern contains a lot of value. Many small designers and indie publishers like us do not have the high volume of sales to earn a living wage based on current industry pricing.

You spend hours of your life on each knitting project, and Knitrino believes those hours should be filled with joy and accomplishment. Knitrino’s pricing represents the value that knitters are getting, a beautiful, friendly pattern and the Knitrino Experience: keep track of your progress and highlight your active row, see only your size, get help with the click of a stitch.

Knitrino believes that designers and creators should make a living wage for their work, and is committed to paying collaborators fairly.

Knitrino offers a financial assistance program for those who are experiencing financial hardship. You can reach out to us directly for more info at support@knitrino.com.
