This seamless, circular yoke sweater is a colourful dream! Worked from the top-down and featuring a fishnet colour patterning on the bodice and sleeves, knitters of every level will delight in the year-round knit and wear.

PATTERN NOTES
This pullover is worked from the top down in the round. It features a fishnet colour pattern in a contrasting color worked once around the yoke and again on the sleeves above the cuffs. The yoke, body and sleeves are all worked in stockinette stitch. The hem of the sweater is worked flat in garter stitch. The cuffs have a band of garter stitch.
Use the mini skeins from the gradient Party of Five set for the colorwork in the yoke and cuff charts. There are five colors ranging from lightest (CC1) to darkest (CC5), with the fading colors in between (CC2, CC3, CC4). This yarn is held double. Divide each mini skein into two balls, so that the yarn can be held double.
The Yoke & Sleeve patterns are both written (see Stitches Used) and charted (page 5) for your preference.
