[You can sign up for my newsletter here.][1] Bands of simple colorwork wrap around the yoke of My Fletching Worsted. The repeats are easily memorized, and the floats are short, which makes My Fletching Worsted perfect for a new colorwork knitter. It is also a wonderfully relaxing knit for a more experienced colorwork knitter. My Fletching Worsted is knit seamlessly top-down in the round beginning with a seamless folded collar. Short rows are worked under the colorwork to lift the back neck for an excellent fit.
