Good to Know

The sweater is knit top-down with double strands. You start by casting on at the neckline, then increasing for the shoulders. The sweater is then split at the underarms, and the body and sleeves are knitted separately.

Yarn amounts are based on average usage and may vary for individuals. The pattern can be knit with any yarn of the same thickness as Organic Merino DK combined with Kid Silk Mohair.
