The Panache sweater is one of Max’s contributions to the book Enfile ta petite laine, which features patterns from Quebec designers. The colourful yoke really does look amoosing… er, amusing! This top-down colourwork sweater is a good pattern for more adventurous knitters as it features rounds where three colours are used at a time.
The kit includes the following colourways in the required quantities on British DK and Falkland DK from Les Garçons. The pattern is not included; it is published in the book Enfile ta petite laine.
Please note that the book is only available in French.
