Notions:
Stitch markers (1 unique for BOR, several markers to indicate the chart repeats; scissors; row counter (suggested); darning needle to weave in ends; waste yarn or stitch holders to hold your sleeve stitches.

Notes:
This yoke-style sweater is knit in the round from the top down, using circular needles. The sleeve stitches are put on holders, and the rest of the body is knit first.

I recommend before starting this knit, you take out a sweater that you enjoy the fit of, and measure across the front of it. I would then take a look at the finished garment measurements and determine what size you would like to knit.

This is a perfect “third sweater” to knit, as the colorwork on the yoke require a higher level of knitting skills. This sweater uses the basic yoke-styled top down construction.
