#3 Starfish
The pattern is for a pullover sweater with graceful starfish scattered over the fabric - knit with intarsia. There is also a cropped version.
There is no shaping on front or back except for ribbing on bottom and neck shaping. Schematic shows 51” circumference and and 26.5” length with an additional 3.5” of ribbing. The sleeves are shaped by regular increases from cuff and are dropped sleeves.
The pattern calls for fingering weight yarn - Rowan Wool and Cotton, and one of the intarsia colors is Rowan Fine Cotton Chenille. Pattern calls for 8 40g skeins of the MC and one 40g skein each of 5 colors plus one of the chenille for the intarsia.
