INTRO
Tribal art is a stranded 2 colour work pullover / tee . A great start for those who want to try out colour work knitting. This project is work in round starting from the top down. Short row are added to shape the neck line and then the stranded yoke is worked. The sleeves are work at the end. This pattern is made using a combination of sports weight yarn for the main colour and a light dk weight yarn for the contrast colour. The pattern can be easily converted for the use of other yarn weight by just up sizing it or down sizing it. Included in this pattern are a variety of sleeves length, unfinished neck line, crop / normal / half hip body length & also a choice for normal ribbing bind off and stretchy bind off.
