A circular yoke sweater with a simple colorwork pattern
This circular yoke sweater is knit in the round and from the top down, beginning with a close fitting neckline you cast on. Before starting the yoke increases, you work short rows on the back panel so the sweater sits nicely on your torso. Then, you work the yoke using corrugated ribbing, which includes a front and a back body panel and the beginning of two sleeve panels. When your yoke is long enough to reach your armpits, you separate the sleeve panels from the body panels, holding the sleeve stitches on scrap yarn. You will join the body panels on the sleeve separation round, then finish the body of the sweater down to the waist. The pattern includes optional bust darts, including suggested spacing for each size and a description to customize bust darts based on your own measurements. (Note: the sweater in the modeled picture does not feature bust darts.) You then work each sleeve individually and in the round. You finish by picking up stitches at the neckline and working an i-cord bind off for the collar.
