Helena is a yoked sweater that uses some super fun twisted stitches! If you haven’t tried these before, you’re going to love the effect they create! Knitted in the round on a circular needle, this is a knit that begins with the sleeves - and you can knit these on DPNs or circulars using magic loop. The detailing on the yoke is written out round by round to follow, rather than charted.
