This is a PDF knitting pattern.
Honeycombs decorate the circular yoke of this seamless top-down sweater. Choose a main color in DK weight and five contrast color pops. The slip stitch honeycombs are surprisingly simple to knit as you work with only one color at a time. This project is suitable for adventurous beginners if this is your first colorwork sweater project. Try on the sweater as you knit to customize the body and sleeve length.
This design offers lots of mindless stockinette stitch knitting as you knit and watch your favorite shows. The colorwork yoke will make you addicted to honeycombs, so you can knit a matching Painting Honeycombs Hat or Shawl too!
