Knitted In Yeoman Panama using 1 cone of Lilac and around a quarter of a cone of crocus, this gorgeous sweater has been created combining Fairisle, a shaped yoke (lowered at front) and tuck cables.
Intended for experienced machine knitters, the 31 page instructions include details on designing your own yoke, how to knit the cable effect section and how to join garment seams using Kitchener stitch.
The instructions are written for a Brother Electronic Standard Gauge Knitting Machine, these can be adapted for any 24st machine however a long pattern repeat would not be possible, instead use smaller patterns which have less “obvious” joins or don’t need pattern matching.
