A sweater made adorable with playful colorwork on the yoke and hem.
Inspired by the cold seasons of Sapporo, I named it the “Sapporo Sweater.”

The slight frill at the hem adds a vintage, girly charm — perfect for a Mori-girl look.
Start from the neckband, using short rows to shape the back neckline.
Then work yoke increases while adding colorwork.

If you understand the basics of short row knitting and fair isle technique beforehand,
you’ll find it a fun and rewarding project.
Wishing you a happy and lovely knitting experience! ✨
