Kitzbuhel ˈkɪtsbyːl is a small alpine town in the middle of the Austrian Alps known for its skiing y mountain scenery. During Spring, when the snow is almost gone from the mountains y the sun sets, the snow glows in many colors against the dark forest y the lights from the town twinkle in the air. It’s truly a magical sight y it’s the inspiration behind the Kitzbuhel pullover and its cardigan counterpart. It is a top-down raglan style pullover, completely seamless, worked fully in Standard Mosaic Crochet. It’s an entertaining project that allows you to play with color but with a rhythmic repetitive pattern that is easy to memorize.
