This is a circular yoke pullover for babies and children. It is worked seamlessly from the top down. The stranded yoke is worked in two colors and increases are worked around the yoke. After the yoke is done, sleeve stitches are placed on hold to be worked after the body has been completed. The motif is inspired by white butterflies common in my area during spring; it also matches the previously published Dancing Butterflies Hat.
