NOTES ABOUT DESIGN

The Fusion Sweater is a top-down sweater with a unique yoke construction.

The yoke is worked in 2 sections: the first one, increasing only the front and back panel, and the second one, increasing the sleeves. For bigger sizes, Section 2 has 2 Parts: one, increasing only the sleeves, and second, increasing the sleeves and the front and back panels.

After finishing the yoke, the piece is split into sleeves and body. The three parts are worked individually until the desired length.

YARN

For the Fusion Sweater, I used Genna Yarn Tweed Worsted which is composed of 85% Superwash Merino and 15% Dondegal Nep. The colors I used were Silver, Kaki, and Conifere. Each hank of yarn weighs 100 grams and has approximately 166 meters of yarn. 
Here’s an approximate breakdown of the yarn required for each size:

Conifere: 330 (360, 400, 440) (490, 530, 580, 670, 740) meters
Silver: 290 (310, 340, 380) (420, 450, 500, 570, 630) meters
Kaki: 200 (220, 240, 270) (300, 320, 350, 400, 440) meters
You will need the following number of hanks for each color, depending on the size you’re making:

Conifere: 2 (3, 3, 3) (3, 4, 4, 5, 5) hanks; Silver: 2 (2, 3, 3) (3, 3,4, 4, 4) hanks; Kaki: 2 (2, 2, 2) (2, 2, 3, 3, 3) hanks
Please note that the yardage requirements may vary depending on the length and color pattern you choose.
