Workflow: The Stargazer sweater is knit top down, starting with the neck edge. Then increases are made in the round for the yoke and the stars are knit using the stranded colorwork technique. The yoke is split for the sleeves and body and then the body and sleeves are knit up separately and finished with 2x2 ribbing.

You need approx. less than 1 skein of Kremke Merry merino 70 to finish the color work stars.

Techniques used:
- invisible increase
