PRE-REQUISITES

To knit this swoncho, you need to know how to knit and purl, knit in the round, cast on stitches using the tubular method, knit German short rows, make lifted increases (those normally used for armholes), pick up and resume stitches, colourwork technique, and bind off stitches using the Italian method. It is essential to know how to read charts, as the instructions for knitting the colourwork motif on the yoke are only provided in chart form.

CONSTRUCTION

This swoncho has a top-down construction, meaning it is started by knitting from the neckline, continuing with the yoke, then separating the sleeves and body, and continuing to knit the body in the round. Next, the sleeves are picked up and knitted in the round to the cuff. It is made in one piece, without any seams. It is knitted in circular stockinette stitch, with a colourwork motif on the yoke. The body and sleeves finish with a ribbed trim.
