Designer Notes:

  • The Moda Dea Tweedle Dee yarn possesses certain color properties. When beginning a new ball of yarn, be sure to begin with the same color the last ball ended with in order to preserve the color pattern. Also, begin both sleeves with the same color.
  • When working in the Cable Pattern, omit the bobbles whenever they occur on the edge stitch, working them as knit stitches instead.
