NOTE: It is worked flat in pieces from the bottom up and sewn together. In order for the colour-work pattern to flow continuously around the body without interruption by side seams, the right front, back and left front are worked in a single piece to the armholes. Then the fronts and back are worked separately to the top. Button-bands and Collar are picked up to finish.

BEFORE STARTING YOUR PROJECT: 

As hand-dyed yarns (and commercial in many cases), contrasting colors may/will bleed, on first washes.  We take a great care to rinse our hand dyed yarns more than one time. It is recommended to pre-wash contrasting colored skeins before starting your project OR knit a small swatch and do a color test.   Consequently, we will not offer winding so you can test and/or pre-wash skeins before knitting if needed.

This pattern is sold in a numeric PDF format: a link to download your pattern will be provided once the order is completed and you will also get this link by email (make sure to check your spams if you can't find the email in your inbox)
