Otepopo
This is a pattern for a jumper worked from the top down and in the round, with a circular yoke and short or elbow length sleeves, and using the stranded colourwork technique.
Find your yarn kit at Doespins.
Doe uses leftover synthetic dyes from a local mill which would otherwise go to waste on locally NZ made commercial yarns.
Please see schematic for all approximate finished sizes. Feel free to make any adjustments, as needed, for best fit.
