This top-down, colorwork pullover features two beautiful silk blend yarns which melt from a solid to a variegated hand-dye. Choose a tonal and solid, or two solids; the result will be stunning!

Finished Size:
Chest 32(36, 40, 44, 48, 52) inches, length 14(14.5, 15, 16, 16.5, 17)”

Yarn: Winterstrom Ranch Fiber Mill Rambouillet/Silk, 200 yards/68g skein; they call it “approximately Sport” (but DK will work for this). Your yardage will vary according to size and length chosen. Smallest size will use about 800 yards; largest about 1600. My 44” bust, 16” long sample took 390g, roughly 1200 yards total; 1.5 skeins of the Natural and the remainder of the variegated. Make sure to buy adequate amounts; I like to have an extra skein just in case.

Needles:
US #6/4.0mm circular needle, 32 inches or longer (larger sizes may prefer a longer needle).
Set of US #6/4.0mm double pointed needles or preferred method for small circumference knitting in the round.
Or size to make gauge

Gauge: 20 stitches/28 rows per 4” in stockinette stitch, worked in the round.
