Westward by Tayler Harris is an adorable colorwork sweater using Tage, a merino wool and mohair blend. Tage's unique chainette construction will keep this garment light and airy but with enough body to stay nice and warm.
NOTES:
Pullover is worked from the top down. The back and front yokes are worked flat, then joined in the round to work the body to the hem. Sleeve stitches are picked up around the armhole and worked in the round. Mockneck stitches are picked up around the neckline and worked in the round.
Garter stitch selvedge sts are worked at each side of flat sections.
Do not cut yarns at color changes. For flat sections, carry yarn up the selvedge edge. In the round, carry yarn up the wrong side at the beginning of the round. Slip all slipped stitches purlwise. Choose the size with 8β16β / 20-40 cm of positive ease.
