Rosehip and Heather Sweater
Notes
Rosehip and Heather (the colors of this sweater always reminds me of a wonderful national park nearby) is a boxy worn top down sweater with a color blocking. It starts with the neck at the back part and at the same time working the shoulders by using short row shaping. After that the front neckline gots it shape and back and front part are worked separately. As soon as the sleeve width is reached front and back joining together and the body is worked in the round including the edge with 1x1 ribbing after that going to the sleeves to finish this with a 1x1 rib as well. Then the neck ribbing is set on incl. the lovely note of the two colored Atelyeah neckband worked inside out.
