PATTERN INFORMATION

The Dorthea Yoke Sweater is worked in the round, top-down. After the ribbing, short rows are worked to shape the neckline, then the yoke is worked in stranded colorwork following the chart. You will then divide the body and work short rows on the body to even out the yoke’s curve at the sides. The body and sleeves are worked in the round in plain stockinette stitch, and each finished with a ribbed edge. The sweater has a relaxed fit with deep armholes.
