Instructions will be modified depending on size--larger sizes will knit more of the garment single stranded, the one Mohair Fade Pack used in this design will accommodate all the sizes shown.

This is a conventional top-down raglan design, where the stitches are picked up along the fronts and neckline and rib stitch is worked to add structure with the shawl collar. The sleeves are worked top down as well in pattern and taper off to a long sleeve or 3/4 as desired.

The fade kit allows you control over which colors you put where, and how much of each shade you allocate for matching sleeves if you so desire. Wind each ball so that you can pull from the center and the outside at the same time.

Pattern is completely free with yarn purchase of Mohair Fade Kit from Artyarns re-sellers.
