PATTERN NOTES
The body of this sweater is worked from the bottom up in one piece and the shoulders are joined with a three needle bind-off. The sleeves are worked flat from the bottom up and then seamed and sewn to the body. The front bands are worked in one piece with short rows to shape the shawl collar.
The Mosaic Diamonds pattern color changed are achieved through slipped stitches. Only one color per row is used at a time. Change colors at the beginning of every RS row. Stitch pattern is charted only.
Sileas is available as part of e-book Color Fusion, and as an individual pattern through Ravelry.
