Procedure: The Kindhearted Sweater Mini is worked from the bottom up with a circular yoke in stranded colorwork knitting, as well as small colorwork details above the ribbing on both body and sleeves. To begin with, the body and both sleeves are worked separately, after which the parts are joined and the yoke is worked in the round. On the larger sizes, short rows are worked at the bottom of the yoke before beginning the colorwork segment in order to add extra length to the back and ensure a good fit. Once the yoke is finished and the stitches have been bound off, new stitches are picked up along the neckline for the folded neckband. Lastly, the hole under each sleeve is seamed together using Kitchener Stitch.
