Classic yoke sweaters are a timeless fashion statement, and this collection of knitting patterns showcases 12 stunning designs featuring intricate and colorful yokes. Yoke sweaters are both practical and beautiful, as a colorwork yoke can elevate a simple knitted sweater to a new level of elegance and sophistication. Knitting pattern designer and author, Olga Putano, has created three basic sweater patterns for different yarn weights: DK, fingering (also known as sock or 4ply), and worsted (aran). Additionally, there are four different yoke designs for each of the basic sweaters, allowing you to choose your preferred style and create a unique garment.
The sweater yoke designs feature stunning but simple colorwork, allowing you to get creative with your favorite color palette. While the designs may appear intricate, they are actually worked in two colors, making them easier to execute than they appear. The patterns only use two colors in a row, making them suitable for beginner to intermediate knitters, while still offering exciting challenges for experienced knitters.
The textured yoke designs are a subtle way to add interest around the neckline with simple cabling techniques. Step-by-step instructions are provided for cable stitch, as well as any other special stitches and techniques, ensuring that you can achieve the desired results with ease.
All the sweaters in this collection are knitted top down and in the round, eliminating the need for sewing up at the end. The yoke section is knitted in one piece, gradually increasing in circumference until it reaches the correct size. Then, the body and sleeves are knitted in the round separately, allowing you to adjust the length of the sweater to your desired length.
Whether you're a beginner knitter or an experienced hand, this collection of knitting patterns is sure to inspire you to create beautiful and unique top-down sweaters with stunning decorative yokes. So, grab your needles and get started on your next project today!
