Chiaro Scuro is Italian for light-dark, or more precisely, clear-obscure. And light to dark is what this pullover is all about, with a beautiful ombre effect resulting from a very simple geometric stranded pattern.

Knitted from the top down in the round. Short rows shape the neckline, which is later trimmed with I-cord . Hem and cuffs are ribbed.
