The Back Yoke Sweater is stylish and laidback, with thoughtful details you may not have encountered before. The design features a split yoke on the back. The deep, roomy yoke extends from the back to the sleeves, creating a casual, comfortable silhouette. The shoulder and back sections worked sideways, then stitches are picked up for the front and back. They are joined at the underarms and worked down in the round to the hem. Sleeve and collas stitches are also picked up from the body and worked in the round. You can choose between two collar treatments, and adjust the cropped length to suit you. An elevated casual look, and a lot to learn — our idea of a perfect sweater class!
