Description
Christmas Belle is worked seamlessly from the top down. First some short rows are worked back and forth to create a higher back neck and then
the yoke is worked in the round with a beautiful “merry and bright” colorwork to sleeve separation. Some last short rows are worked to finish the
yoke shaping right before sleeve stitches are placed on hold. The body is then worked in rounds down to the hem. Sleeves are worked top down to the cuffs last.
