Iced Hearts is a light weight sweater with a subtle colour work yoke inspired by iced gingerbread hearts. Iced Hearts is worked from the bottom up to the underarms, the sleeves are then worked up to the underarm, joined to the body and the yoke is worked up to the neck edge, working optional short rows into the colour work design.

There are two options for the colour work of the yoke, two contrast colours, or one contrast colour.

There are two options for the body, an A line longer line body, or a straight body worked without increases or decreases. There are two arm options, a gentle balloon arm with a narrow ribbed cuff, or a narrower tapered arm. The pink sample shows the straight body with the tapered sleeves, the brown sample shows the A line body option with the balloon sleeves. The sleeves, body shape and colour work chart options are completely interchangeable.
