Starfall is a fun, quick knit. Working seamlessly and in the round, the body and sleeves are worked first, with optional stranded colorwork motifs at the hem and cuff. Subtle waist shaping is worked for a feminine silhouette. After joining for the yoke, short row shaping is worked on the back of the sweater for a great fit in the shoulders. Last but not least comes the best part - the stranded colorwork yoke! This design is well-suited to many styles of yarn: semisolids, speckled, or solids. The options for color combinations are endless while not being overly-complicated, calling for just 4 colors. Or you can simplify and make a 2 or 3 color version. Bright and bold, soft and understated, or somewhere in between, the choice is yours.

Norwegian translation is available and comes automatically with your purchase.
