Bands of archery-inspired colorwork wrap around the yoke of My Fletching. The simplicity of the colorwork makes Fletching an excellent choice for a first colorwork sweater. My Fletching is knit seamlessly top-down in the round.
The My Fletching Sweater Kit includes:
- Enough yarn in your selected size to make one sweater.
- BWC Ring Stitch Markers in the medium size at no additional cost!
- A stamped cotton project bag.
