CONSTRUCTION
Tea Set Jumper is a top-down, circular yoke sweater. The yoke has some rounds with three colors giving an opportunity for working yarn management.

The yoke increases are incorporated throughout the colorwork yoke chart. Order of construction is listed with casting on neck sts, neck ribbing, set-up increases, yoke chart, short rows, separating sleeves and body, then knitting a straight body and tapered sleeves.
The short rows deepen the backside of yoke for a better fit.

Tea Set Jumper has an intended 3-4 inch / 7 - 10 cm of positive ease for body and 2 ½ to 3 ¼ inch / 6 - 8 cm of positive ease for sleeves.

Measurements are based on the standards and guidelines of the Craft Yarn Council.
