Gone with the wind is a round yoke sweater worked seamlessly from the top-down and features a beautiful colorwork yoke. After cast on, first some short rows are worked back and forth to slightly raise the back. The colorwork yoke is worked according to the chart and stitches are increased at the same time. For the final yoke shaping a few more short rows are added. Stitches for the sleeves are set aside and first the body is finished in rounds. Sleeve stitches are picked up again and the sleeves are worked in rounds from top to bottom, ending with beautiful colorwork cuffs.

Gone with the wind ist ein Rundpassenpullover, der nahtlos von oben nach unten gestrickt wird. Nach dem Maschenanschlag werden zunächst einige verkürzte Reihen hin und her gestrickt, um den rückwärtigen Ausschnitt leicht anzuheben. Die farbige Passe wird nach der Strickschrift gestrickt und innerhalb des Musters werden Maschen zugenommen. Mit wenigen verkürzten Reihen wird die Formgebung fertig gestellt. Anschließend werden die Maschen für die Ärmel stillgelegt und zuerst der Körper in Runden fertig gestrickt. Danach werden die Maschen für die Ärmel wieder aufgenommen und die Ärmel werden in Runden von oben nach unten gestrickt. Für die Ärmelbündchen wird erneut ein Farbstrickmuster nach Strickschrift gearbeitet.
