Construction:
This simple colourwork pullover is worked top-down, seamlessly in the round, finishing off with rib for both the sleeves and the body.
The pattern starts with a ribbed neckline worked in-the-round, and short-rows worked flat, to raise the neckline. Increases for the yoke are incorporated into the rest-rows of the colourwork chart.
Once the yoke is complete you can choose between either yoke-only colourwork or all-over colourwork.
NB: The yarn quantities below are for yoke - only colourwork
The sleeves and body are worked seamlessly in the round, with no assembly required in the end.
