Linen Stitch Stripes is a traditional top-down circular yoke sweater. The simple overall pattern shows off the yarns and makes it accessible to most knitters. A few rounds of linen stitch make the color transitions more interesting, provide texture, and disguise the jog at the beginning/end of each round.
