This is a three-color Nordic-style dropped-shoulder pullover with steeked neck and armholes. Colorwork techniques include stranded and Ladder back jacquard (LBJ). Steeks are secured by felting. Outside references are included for LBJ and felted steeks.

Pattern includes colorwork bands and textured body, featuring images of the Samoyed dog. Dogs are knitted using combined Maine Line and Silk Mohair Lux in the LBJ technique. The combination of yarns is intended to make the dogs pop, but the Silk Mohair is optional.

Sizes available for youth/teens (12, 14, 16) and adults (XS-6X). Approximately 5 inches of ease is figured into the sizing.

Materials needed are 1062-2865 yards of Frangipani for MC, 191-382 yards of Rauma Finull for CC1 and 230/210 yards each of Maine Line CC2 (White) and Lana Gatto Silk Mohair Lux in same/similar color as CC2 (6027 Ivory).

Note: Rauma Finull may be substituted for the Frangipani and Maine Line yarns.

All proceeds from this pattern will be donated to Y Not Save a Sam Samoyed rescue.
