Check sizing table for garment dimensions. Yarn quantities are calculated for the body and sleeve lengths given in the sizing table. If you wish to add length to body and / or sleeves, you may need an extra skein of shades A and D.

Needles and Notions
Gauge-size and below gauge-size circular needles of appropriate lengths for working body, yoke, and neckline
Gauge-size and below gauge-size needle(s) of your preferred type for working small circumferences
Stitch markers
Waste yarn for holding stitches
Tapestry needle

Gauge
22 sts and 30 rounds to 10cm / 4in over stranded colourwork in the round using gauge-size needle. If your gauge tends to tighten when working small circumferences or colourwork, you may need to go up a needle size for sleeves. Use 4mm needle as a starting point for swatching.

Sizes
Finished bust circumference: 88.5 (96, 103.5, 111, 118, 125.5, 133, 140.5, 155) cm / 35 (38, 41, 43½, 46½, 49½, 52½, 55½, 61) in

Pattern notes
This circular yoke pullover is knitted from the bottom up, all in one piece, with allover stranded colourwork, following a simple 4 stitch repeat. The body is made first, followed by the sleeves, before they are joined together. After a short section of raglan shaping worked in the allover pattern, the circular yoke is worked from a chart, followed by the ribbed roll neck. All charts are read from right to left throughout.
