A striking turtleneck sweater with a firecracker collar and an oriental fiery dragon curling around the shoulders with the tail curling down one sleeve.

The Fire Dragon Yoked Sweater is seamless, knitted top down, in the round, with a stranded yoke.

Sizing - instructions are given for sizes S, M, L, XL and XXL - so you’re good if you fall within the following size ranges:
Chest 82 - 138 cm (32 - 54 inches)
Waist: 59 - 114 cm (23 - 44 inches)
Hips: 88 - 144 cm (34.5 - 57 inches)

Can be adjusted to be longer or shortened to make a more cropped top.

Sleeve length can be adjusted - full or 3/4.

Options are included for a looser or a more tailored fit around the waist.

You will need around 400g of yarn around 300g in the main colour and 100g in the contrast colour.

Charts and full instructions included.

Correction: near the bottom of p11 should read:
There is 1 repeat of each part of the pattern in the yoke – for legibility the individual charts will focus on one section each. Be sure to keep them in the right order as you knit!

(Previous version said 2 repeats.)
