Color Rain Sweater is worked using 6 strands of Soft Silk Mohair in 2 different colorways to create a beautiful fade. The sweater is worked in stockinette stitch in the round from the top down.

The yoke is shaped with raglan increases to the underarms. Here, you divide body and sleeves, and start working the sleeves next. The sleeves are intentionally worked before the body so that you have the option of adding extra length to the body later without interfering with the fade on the sleeves. Both body and sleeves are finished with ribbed edges.
