Galleny Force Pattern

Description

Galleny Force is an effortlessly wearable, asymmetrical sweater designed by Marie Greene, blending relaxed style with eye-catching detail. This top-down, seamless pullover features a striking twisted stitch panel that runs along one side of the body, bringing a touch of visual intrigue to its clean lines. Reverse stockinette panels down the sleeves and elegant twisted rib trims at the edges elevate the look with subtle texture. Thoughtfully constructed with short-row shaping at the yoke for a comfortable fit, Galleny Force is the kind of sweater you’ll reach for again and again—perfect for layering, lounging, or stepping out in timeless style.

Knit in The Fibre Co.’s Lore, a 100% lambswool DK weight yarn spun in England’s historical textile region, this design truly comes to life. Lore’s lofty, woolen-spun structure offers incredible stitch definition—making those twisted stitches pop—while its gentle halo and soft hand ensure cozy, all-day comfort. Durable yet lightweight, Lore is the ideal match for this relaxed-fit sweater, offering both warmth and breathability. Its heritage character adds depth to the fabric, beautifully complementing Marie Greene’s modern yet classic aesthetic.
