Inspired by Belgian Lace, this pullover features the stranded pattern on its round yoke that recreates the traditional bobbin lace band.
This pullover is worked in the one piece from the top down with yoke shaping.

Notes
• This pullover is worked in the one piece from the top down with yoke shaping.
• Due to significant variance between knitters, I recommend colorwork swatching in advance to determine whether or not the needle size for colorwork should be larger, smaller or equal to needle size, used for the main fabric (US 4/3.5 mm). It is helpful to make a few rows in plain stockinette and at least 20 rows in colorwork.
