This lightweight fall sweater is great for anyone who is first in line to get the autumn themed coffee drinks when they come out in August. It’s knit in fingering weight yarn for a lightweight sweater that is perfect as the weather transitions from blazing sun to cool mornings and changing leaves. The sweater is seamless and knit from the top down. The colorwork yoke is done in the round before the body and sleeves are separated.

The pattern is currently written for bust circumferences 30 (32, 34, 36, 38) 40 (42, 44, 46, 48) 50, 52 and 54 (56, 58, 60) 62 (64, 66) with 0-2 inches negative ease. For a looser fit, I recommend sizing up.

The colorwork can be done using leftover yarn as you should not need more than 50g in each color for any of the sizes.
