SUMMARY: This is a woman’s round-neck, pullover with drop-shouldered, long sleeves. It is worked in the round and features multiple bands of mainly geometric patterns – squares and triangles. A large flower pattern and ‘X’ band are worked on the upper yoke and sleeves. The hemline, collar and cuffs are all self-faced. The collar is picked-up from the body stitches and worked onwards in the finishing stages.

The sweater uses seven colours: one Main Colour (MC) and six Contrasting Colours (CC1 – CC6). Quantities are given for two colour versions – khaki, burgundy and rust or green, burgundy and red.

The pullover is shown in the green version while the cardigan is shown in the khaki version.
