The striped yoke gives the smart dropped-shoulder line. As an alternative colour-scheme for this attractive affair, STITCHCRAFT suggests black (No. 2020) for the body part, black and white for the striped yoke, and red (No. 2119) for the bands. This has been tried out and is most successful!

  • A set of four No. 9 needles for the yoke
