ABOUT

The sweater is available in two versions, both worked bottom up: the first features a stranded pattern on the body, and stripes on the yoke and the wrists (V1); the second has a stranded pattern only on the wrists and on the lower section of the yoke (V2). The two versions require a different amount of yarn.
V1 - The body is knitted in the stranded pattern up to the underarm, while the sleeves are knitted in solid colour with a small stripe section at the wrist. More stripes are knitted at the yoke.
V2 - The stranded pattern is featured both on the lower part of the yoke and on the wrists (right after the ribs), while the body and the main portion of the sleeves are knitted in solid color. The upper part of the yoke is knitted in stripes.

NOTE: Sono presentate due versioni, entrambe lavorate bottom-up: la prima con un motivo fair isle sul corpo, mentre lo sprone e i polsini sono a righe (V1); la seconda con un motivo fair isle sul polsino e sulla parte inferiore dello sprone (V2). I metraggi variano per le due versioni.
V1 - Il motivo a rombi accompagna il corpo della maglia fino alla separazione del giromanica. Quando si uniscono le maniche con il corpo per lavorare lo sprone in tondo, si sostituisce alla lavorazione fair isle una serie di righe che vengono riprese anche in un piccolo dettaglio della manica.
V2 - Presenta la lavorazione del motivo a rombi sul polsino, subito dopo il bordo a costa della manica. Sia il corpo, sia le maniche continuano poi in tinta unita fino all’unione dello sprone. Nella parte inferiore dello sprone si riprende il motivo a rombi, per poi proseguire con altre righe.
