Greenleaf
Greenleaf is a top down and seamless stranded yoke sweater featuring big, graphic leaves. Have fun choosing seasonally inspired yarn and colors or choose something more neutral for year-round wear. Options for short or long sleeves are given with choice of ribbed or colorwork sleeve cuffs. The chart for this design is particularly simple, great for those who are new to stranded knitting.
