“Muted shades of berry offset ebony, ash and slate in van Dillen’s sleeveless sweater dress, allowing the diamond-block intarsia pattern to draw the eye flatteringly across the figure. Lightweight yet cozy in Berroco’s ‘Ultra Alpaca Light,’ it sports a doubled mock-turtleneck collar and a hemmed lower edge.”

Charts begin on p. 138 showing the first 80 rows of chart 1. Remaining charts (pdf format) are at Vogue Knitting Website under the “Pattern Help” tab. All charts use Stockinette stitch unless otherwise directed and are needed to complete the dress.
