About:
Inspired by traditional quilt patterns, the Yokelore Sweater is knit entirely in the round, from the top down. The pattern uses a yoke sweater construction, but with consistent increasing similar to a raglan design. Although the pattern uses five different colours, the four contrast colours can be sourced from leftovers from past projects.
