Miara Sweater
The MIARA SWEATER is an elegant, top-down, yoked sweater, made in a luxurious yarn. The colourwork is a beautiful slipped stitch pattern that I come back to again and again because, although it looks complex, it is quite simple to work, holding only one colour per row. This pattern is wonderful because of its versatility; you could make it a multicoloured spectacular, or embrace monochrome sophistication.

Small errata: on page three, the sentence should read: It should read: See instructions on page 5 to work your size for the rest of yoke.
I will fix that in the pattern as soon as my graphic designer comes back from vacation!
