Stash Buster Pullover

I finished this pullover some time ago but never got around to taking a photo or two. This is my stash buster pullover, although not entirely so because I did buy two of the yarns. I had the grey Elsebeth Lavold Silky Tweed in my stash as well as the dusty rose Batiste by Knit One Crochet Too. I had to buy one skein each of the white and pink Elsebeth Lavold Silky Wool because I didn't have anything else in my stash that were suitable colors. The grey midsection is knitted side to side and the top and bottom sections are picked up and knit vertically. I also used a broken rib on the bottom and a simple knit-purl squares pattern on the pink. I think I could have used an extra 1/2 inch or so of length, but in general, it's a very wearable top for spring or fall.
