Stripes overlaid with large polkadots, this fun design is simpler to knit than it looks as there are
only ever 2 colours per row. Start by knitting the body and sleeves from the bottom up. Then join
the 3 pieces onto one needle and seamlessly work the fun and graphic yoke design, punctuating it
with bobbles, whilst gradually making decreases to shape the shoulders. After the last decrease
has been made, short rows are added to raise the back neck slightly, before finishing off this playful
sweater with the contrast-colour neck ribbing. Beautiful and light in cotton with cropped sleeves
for summer, this sweater would work equally well knit in wool with longer sleeves for colder
months.
