I love the colors in this yarn, hence the name Butterfly Wings. I designed an easy to knit top-down pullover that uses a different stitch pattern for each of the 5 colors. These stitch patterns create texture and visual interest to the pullover, but are easy enough for beginners or someone wanting to expand their stitch knowledge. One of the stitches even looks like little butterflies.

The pullover is knitted on circular needles in the round, so no seams to sew up except for a small hole under the arms.

The scarf is knitted flat, back and forth, in a loop stitch.

Yarn: I used Bernat Softee Baby Stripes 4.2 oz (120g) / 287 yds
(262m) 5 (5, 6, 7) skeins for the pullover and 1 1/2 skeins for the
scarf. I used colorway Butterfly Wings Stripe.

The scarf measures 4” (10cm) wide by 48” (122cm) long (yours may be longer or shorter depending on how much yarn you have left over from the pullover)
