Description
Seacross by Becky Baker is a seamless sweater knitted from the top down with a stunning five-color yoke. The pattern includes two sets of instructions for the colorwork: one for knitters who are comfortable stranding several colors at once and one with Swiss darning instructions for those who are less comfortable. Lore creates a light and lofty fabric that blooms beautifully when washed—perfect for colorwork!
