By Claudia Q

The adult version of the Kaleidoscope from Making Memories, inspired by the reflective colours and shapes of a kaleidoscope.

The pullover is worked from the bottom up with a circular yoke. The sleeves are knit separately in the round to the base of the yoke, then joined. A section of short rows is worked at the bottom of the back yoke for a more comfortable fit.

There is also a children’s version of Kaleidoscope from Making Memories: Timeless Knits for Children.
