This engaging, fast-paced project is designed for the knitter who loves variety and clear direction.

Worked bottom-up in pieces and seamed for a classic set-in-sleeve fit, the design features a striking short-row triangle base with simple cables, and a mosaic colorwork section that fills the sides before joining into a seamless flow.

With crystal-clear instructions and photo guides to lead you every step of the way, the pattern offers incredible value by including both short and long-sleeve versions—perfect for year-round styling in any color palette.

Finished sizes chest circumference:
82 (92, 102, 112, 122)cm 32 (36, 40, 44, 48)inch.

Construction description:

A Set-in-sleeve top, worked from the bottom up, in pieces and seamed.

The front and back pieces are worked in the same manner to underarm.

Shape:
The bottom is shaped using short rows to form the triangle shape and finished with the waistband.
A mosaic colorwork section then fills in each side of the triangle, and is worked separately with a ball of each color, then joined to work across the whole piece.
At the neck, the piece is divided with each side worked separately - with its own set of yarns.

Charts:
The cable pattern and mosaic colorwork are charted only with written directions for construction and shaping. The triangle shaping has both charted and written instructions.

Must know:

  • mosaic
  • simple cables
  • short rows (I used German short rows and there’s a link to a video tutorial in the pattern. If you’re familiar with any type of short rows, it’ll be easy for you)
  • reading charts.

Yarn:
For both summer and winter versions: DK weight, 137y (125 m) / 50g.

Needles:
Note: the triangle shaping requires circular needle
2.75mm US size 2 circular needles, 60cm 24”
3.25 mm US size 3 circular needles, 60cm 24”
Adjust needle size if necessary to obtain gauge.
