Prairie Wind Yoke Color Work Bundle ; 20g minis on Silk Merino
This is the set of colors that I used for my Prairie Winds Pullover; I went a little overboard in the color changes, and you will probably end up with leftovers of all of these colors, but the yoke is so pretty, and so many people asked for this exact color set at my recent shows, so here it is!
For whatever pattern you choose, I create the marled effect for my yoke sweaters by holding yarn in this way:
2 strands of color 1 for 6 rows of the yoke chart
1 strand of color 1 & 1 strand of color 2 for 6 rows of the yoke chart
2 strands of color 2 for 6 rows of the yoke chart
1 strand of color 2 & 3 strand of color 2 for 6 rows of the yoke chart
2 strands of color 3 for 6 rows of the yoke chart
1 strand of color 3 & 4 strand of color 2 for 6 rows of the yoke chart
2 strands of color 4 for 6 rows of the yoke chart
1 strand of color 4 & 5 strand of color 2 for 6 rows of the yoke chart
2 strands of color 5 for 5 rows of the yoke chart
This listing is for the color work set of minis only; I have full skeins of DK weight yarn that can be used for the main color of your sweater in separate listings, and the colors I suggest for this set are Naked Bruce Yak Silk, Naked Robert Tweed DK
