Product Details

This lovely sweater is inspired by my love of the forest covered mountains and birds along the west coast of Canada where I grew up.

The sweater is knit in the round with 3.5mm (4US) needles from the bottom up in three separate pieces (body and sleeves) until the chest. Then the three pieces are placed on the same large circular needle and knitted together for the chest up to the neck (yoke).

The pattern includes instructions for five sizes: with corresponding blocked bust measurements: 33” (36.5”, 40.5”, 44”, 48.5”).

The sample is knit with sports weight alpaca, Drops Alpaca (100% Alpaca, 4 ply). Each ball is 25 grams / 167 meters. The yarn selection shown in the picture are (number of balls are shown with larger sizes in brackets): o 5, (5, 6, 6, 7) Dark Grey Mix (0506) (colour A) o 3 Off White (0100) (colour B) o 1 Indigo (4305) (colour C) o 1 Light Grey Mix (0506) (colour D) o 1 Dark Green (7895) (colour E)

The pattern includes charts for the fair isle yoke of the sweater.
