NOTES


  • The body and sleeves of this pullover
    are worked in the round from the
    bottom up to the yoke, then the
    pieces are joined for working the
    circular yoke.

  • The Colorwork chart is worked using
    the stranded method. Always pick
    up the background color over the
    pattern color and pick up the pattern
    color from under the background
    color; this will prevent tangling. Keep
    floats loose.

  • When shaping yoke, if a marker falls
    in the center of a decrease, remove
    the marker and replace it after the
    decrease.
