Teranika Sweater

This purchase is for the DIGITAL PATTERN only, not a physical item.

Teranika is a top-down seamless yoke sweater with a deep colorwork chart that uses a series of complementary and contiguous colors worked in a lively contemporary Fair Isle motif. The ribbed neckline is followed by short rows at the back of the neck to create a comfortable fit. This is followed by the stranded knitting that is worked in multiple colors, although there are never more than two colors per round. The chart continues past the sleeve and body divide. The sleeves are knit in stockinette stitch, and the cuffs and body are finished off in ribbing. This pattern includes a symbol chart that can be colored in with your personal choice of colors, as well as a chart for a two-color alternative.
