I have wanted to create a colorwork sweater for quite awhile and what could be better than translating cables into a colorwork yoke- it is the best of both worlds. The colorwork will twist and turn as the rounds are worked encircle you with a winding path that was inspired by long hikes. Blending the cables and colorwork, and knitting and hiking to bring you Echor.
