Fair Isle Sweater
This Sweater is worked in the round from the bottom up. Sleeves and Body are worked separately and then joined together at the yoke and are then worked in one piece to the neck. Change colors using the stranded method. Hold all colors throughout the round that they’re worked, switching colors as indicated in the chart. Be sure not to pull floats tightly across the back of the work.
