Pattern Notes
This highly unusual garment is knitted in the round from the bottom up and features a dramatic Fair Isle pattern on the welt before the main body of the garment commences. The knitting is divided at the armholes and at this point front and back are knitted separately. The sleeves are picked up around the armhole and knitted downwards in the round, ending in a smaller version of the Fair Isle pattern found on the welt.

The size shown in the photographs is the first size worn with 5cm (2in) of positive ease. It is suggested that you choose a size with approximately 5-10cm (2-4in) of positive ease at the chest.
