Notes: Piña Colada is a round-neck pullover worked flat in pieces from the bottom up, in an all-over diamond intarsia and marling pattern. The stitch pattern is created with a combination of yarn B used alone (B) and yarns A and B held together (AB). Use a separate ball or bobbin of yarn A for each AB column, as for intarsia. The long sleeves feature a fitted ribbed cuff and blousy straight shape. The neckband is picked up and worked in the round.
