Twice Again is the fingering weight version of the Once Again sweater with a few changes. It is a top-down, short-sleeved, cropped pullover sweater with A-line shaping. It is knit in-the-round with a stranded yoke that is coupled with simple cable stitches. However, unlike Once Again, the yoke is worked in all knit stitches and there is an additional simple detail at the sleeve cuff. Short rows are used to shape the neckline after the yoke pattern is completed.

Instructions for the yoke are both written and charted, and a separate file is included for those who wish to use only one color instead of a gradient set for the contrasting color. Information is included in the pattern for modifying the sleeve circumference if you like your sleeves a bit looser at the cuff and for adjusting body and/or sleeve length. A video tutorial is included for working the short row section.
