Concinnity is a top-down seamless yoke sweater that is knit in the round. It has short rows at the back of the neck. The yoke is textured with purl stitches, and features a stranded colourwork Fair Isle pattern, that highlights the beautiful gradient fade of the yarn. There is optional waist and hip shaping to add feminine shape, and the bottom cuffs are finished off with small elements of the yoke design.
