Joyous Evergreen
This is a pattern for a circular yoked top-down sweater, intended for a more usual man’s body shape (but a lovely knit-able sweater for all with a few notes for knitters who prefer more shaping). It uses the stranded colorwork technique in a toast to the delightfully appealing evergreen. Both festive and outdoorsy, a warm jumper for inside or out!
