During this hard time I hope you all doing well! My thoughts and prayers go out to all. As a result of this pandemic we are all aware of the enormous problem of hunger that has escalated around the world. In response to this huge need I am donating 100% of the proceeds of this pattern for the first week of sales (5/19/20 - 5/25/20) to Feed the Children. It is an international nonprofit that helps those in need, you can read more about it here. It is my big hope that we will all be moved to reach out in some way to bring joy into someone’s life around us! Take care of yourselves!

Trying my hand at color work again! This time I added a third color and some speckles for fun! Even though this one uses three colors it is still suitable for newbies because only two colors are used at a time. I used Martin’s Lab Tyrrell DK, the colors are wonderful and it knits up beautifully! Come play with color!

Notes:
This sweater is worked in the round from the top down with a seamless color work yoke. Short-row back neck shaping is worked before and after the color work, and the increases are distributed evenly around the yoke. Once the yoke is complete, the stitches for body and sleeves are divided. There is no body shaping below the armholes, but waist shaping may be added if desired. The sleeves and body can easily be lengthened simply by adding more rounds. The pullover is modeled with no ease, but it can be made with positive or negative ease. Be sure to swatch the color work as well as the plain stockinette; it’s often necessary to change needles sizes to maintain consistent gauge.
