Northerly by Caitlin Hunter Ravelry Pattern

Northerly is a top-down circular yoke sweater featuring colorwork, cables and lace for an engaging knit. It was loosely inspired by classic Scandinavian designs and the colors of Alaska in the winter. My sample was knit with elbow length sleeves and a cropped body, but these are adjustable to suit your preference!

Needles:
Note that needle sizes are suggested only. You may need to use a different size to achieve gauge.

Ribbing: US 2 2.75 mm
