Mia's Spring sweater
For this pattern I was inspired by my friend Mia, so I chose colors she likes and got started.
The design is worked top down with neck ribbing, short-rows, then stranded colorwork, sleeve separation and then body finish (length is easily adjusted). Sleeves are worked in stranded colorwork and their length can easily be adjusted as well.
You will need four colors of yarn. One MC, one green and two more contrasting colors of your choice (I used pink and yellow).
Needles used are 4mm/US6 and 3.5mm/US4. Thinner needles are optional for body bottom ribbing. You will need circular needles in lengths starting from 40cm/16 inches.
Yarn selection: The yarn weight is worsted throughout, but to get the best yellow I used two strands of Malabrigo Sock held together as CC3.
Yardage in percent:
MC: 70% (grey)
CC1 and CC2: 13% (pink and green)
CC3: 5% (yellow)
