Pattern Description from Vogue Knitting, Holiday 2009: “Fassett’s fabled se of color takes a new direction on this sloped-shoulder sweater. He reverses his intarsia stripes diagonally, using only two colorways of ‘Colourscape Chunky’ by Rowan/Westminster Fibers. The dolman-sleeve shaping begins just above the garter-stitch border.”
