My Lovely Foxes is a seamless, top down, circular yoke sweater with colorwork details on the body and cuffs. Knit from the top down, you can try on this sweater while it’s in progress, for your best fit. This yoke is very easy to knit - it includes just a bit of raglan shaping before the body and sleeve separation, to make for a good fit in the shoulders. If you’re looking for a first colorwork sweater, My Lovely Foxes is an approachable pattern - there is no shaping within the colorwork, making this pattern slightly easier than a top down stranded yoke.
The model has been made in two versions, you can choose whether to work the design with two or three colors.
