Heimathafen

For pattern support, please find the questions thread [here][1] *Heimathafen* \[ˈhaɪ̯matˌhaːfn̩] (which translates to “home port”) is worked seamlessly from the top down. The beautiful allover “dip stitch colorwork”-stripe pattern highlights the round yoke construction and results in a classic but modern sailor pullover. **yarn kits** can be found at [mYak.it][2] Starting with the neck shaping, short rows are worked back and forth to create a higher back neck. The yoke is then worked in the round to sleeve separation. Increases are worked in the main color part of the yoke. The lower part of the yoke is shaped with raglan increases. Sleeve stitches are placed on hold to work the body top down. The 7/8 sleeves (feel free to reduce/add length) are worked top down in rounds to the cuffs. No finishing required. **Yarn** MYAK Fior di Lino \[218 yards (200 m)/50g]; shown in colors Graphite (MC) and Caffelatte (CC) MC: 4 (5, 5, 5, 6)(6, 7, 7, 8) balls CC: 1 (1, 1, 2, 2)(2, 2, 2, 2) balls or approximately MC: 870 (957, 1042, 1092, 1194)(1294, 1378, 1528, 1557) yds/ 795 (875, 952, 998, 1091)(1183, 1260, 1397, 1423) m CC: 181 (192, 208, 257, 268)(290, 306, 323, 339) yds/ 165 (175, 190, 235, 245)(265, 280, 295, 310) m **Needles** US 2 1/2 (3 mm) 16" (40 cm) and 32" (80 cm) circular needle and DPNs (or longer circular needle for magic loop) for neck cast-on, body ribbing and sleeve ribbing.
