yin yang dance
Yin yang dance is a modern, slightly oversized pullover with fitted sleeves.
It all starts with a loop … an I-cord loop (at the back of the pullover). After having worked the I-cord and the loop, stitches are picked up & knit to work the yoke and sleeves sideways. Then stitches are picked up & knit to work the body top down with a cable and lace motif at the front. The motif is charted and written. Two more small cable motifs finish the high-low hems at the sides and the sleeve cuffs.
One of the test knitters made a variation of the front motif. She made a new chart for it. It is added on an extra page at the end. Thank you, Kate, GardenKate
Also thank you, Sue, Sue-Cat who came up with the name.
