Wylene Two-Colour Pullover in SweetGeorgia Superwash DK - Downloadable PDF

Wylene Two-Colour Pullover by Corrina Ferguson – Knitting Pattern Summary

The Wylene Two-Colour Pullover is a women's knitted pullover designed by Corrina Ferguson and published by SweetGeorgia Yarns. Available as a downloadable PDF, this intermediate-level knitting pattern produces a sweetly chic, colourful spring pullover that showcases the playful depth of variegated yarn through clever two-colour construction. The design is intended to be worn with zero ease, giving it a neat, fitted silhouette across a wide range of bust sizes.

What Is Being Made

The finished garment is a circular-construction pullover worked in the round from the bottom up. It is designed with a flattering fit and features a combination of simple striping and delicate lace panels that work together to highlight the colour variation inherent in SweetGeorgia Superwash DK yarn. The pullover is described as the perfect warm-weather layering piece, balancing playful colour with refined detail.

Finished bust circumference options span a generous size range:

• 32, 36, 39¾, 44, 47¾, 52, and 56 inches (approximately 81.5, 91.5, 101, 112, 121.5, 132, and 142 cm)

Construction Method

The Wylene pullover is worked using a circular construction, meaning the body is knitted in the round rather than seamed from flat pieces. This method produces a smooth, seamless fabric and is particularly well-suited to showcasing striped colourwork, as it eliminates the need to manage colour changes at seams. Working in the round also allows knitters to maintain the right side facing at all times, which is especially helpful when working lace patterns.

Techniques Used

• Two-colour striping – The pattern uses a main colour and a contrasting colour (abbreviated as CC) to create simple, bold stripes. This is an accessible colourwork technique that produces striking visual results, especially when one yarn is variegated.
• Lace panel construction – Subtle lace panels are incorporated into the design. The lace is noted as a proprietary element, with Lace Panels copyright SweetGeorgia Yarns 2016. Lace knitting involves deliberate yarn-overs and decreases to create an openwork, decorative fabric.
• Circular knitting in the round – Both the body and smaller circumference sections are worked on circular needles and, where necessary, double-pointed needles (dpns).
• Shaping techniques – Standard knitting shaping methods including bind off (BO), cast on (CO), and decreases (dec) are used throughout to shape the armholes, neckline, and sleeves.

Stitches Used

• Stockinette stitch – The primary background fabric of the pullover, worked in the round by knitting every round, creating a smooth, classic surface ideal for displaying colour and stripe sequences.
• Lace stitches – Yarn-overs and paired decreases form the lace panel details. These add a delicate, feminine texture that contrasts beautifully with the bold two-colour striping.
• Ribbing – Typically used at cuffs, hems, and neckbands in pullovers of this style to provide stretch and a tidy finish, though knitters should refer to the full PDF for specific stitch instructions at each edge.

Materials – Yarn, Needles, and Notions

Yarn

The pattern is written specifically for SweetGeorgia Superwash DK weight yarn. This is a DK weight yarn from the SweetGeorgia brand, known for its rich, hand-dyed colourways and high-quality superwash wool base. The superwash treatment makes the finished garment easier to care for. The two-colour design calls for both a main colour and a contrasting colour, and the use of a variegated yarn is strongly implied by the pattern's emphasis on showcasing colour variation through stripes and lace.
