CONSTRUCTION
The sweater is knitted in the round from bottom to the top. First, the Body is knitted up to the armholes. Then, the Sleeves are knitted to the underarm. The Sleeves are inserted where the stitches for the armholes were previously bound off. Then, the yoke is knitted with raglan seams toward the neckline. Then, the upper portion of the yoke is worked back and forth in rows and, lastly, the collar is knitted using short, circular needles.

MATERIALS
The pullover can be knitted in a single color or with stripes in different colors. The main color can be the same color throughout
and the color of Silk Mohair can be changed every tenth row either with alternating 2 colors or with many different colors that smoothly blend into each other.

You could also choose 2 primary colors and 2 Silk Mohair colors
that run in 5 cm wide stripes throughout the work. For example,
use colors 2s and 4s in Tversted Yarn with colors 69 and 36 in Silk Mohair or choose colors 3s and 47 in Silk Mohair.
