An abstract pullover with matching cap, suitable for boys or girls! This machine knitting pattern was developed for Passap machines. It is also suitable for other standard-gauge machines, even those without automatic patterning capability. This pattern for a cap and sweater uses a simple every other needle selection and four colours to develop a striking abstract pattern. There are no hand knitting instructions, however there is a schematic and an intermediate hand-knitter comfortable with stranded work should be able to work this pattern.

The pattern calls for 300g (10 3/4 oz) of a medium-weight yarn (meaning, fingering or 4ply weight): 150g beige, 75g yellow, and 75g green. No separate yarn information is given for the cap.
