Manos del Uruguay Guirnalda PDF

Guirnalda from Manos del Uruguay is a darling yoked pullover with colorwork accents. The body and the sleeves are knitted in the round separately from the bottom up to the armholes, then the pieces are put on one needle and worked to the neck edge. Decreases at specific intervals provide both the waist and yoke shaping. Be aware that your gauge may change from Stockinette stitch to colorwork. Consider changing needle size to accommodate any gauge change between the body and the colorwork on the yoke of the sweater. Colorwork pattern is charted.
