The Garment

You asked, we made it ! We are so happy to release our yarn kits and pattern for our new Zodiac Checkmate Top. 

We want everyone to be able to enjoy this and know how colourwork can seem intimidating so we have especially designed the pattern to be beginner friendly. For those who are up for the challenge, we will be releasing a pattern using an instarsia method shortly.

The Zodiac Check Mate Top (Beginner Version) is constructed by knitting individual vertical columns and then sewing them together using mattress stitch. The German Short Row method is used to make the shoulder panels which are inserted between the front and back body pieces to help shape the garment. To keep on track with all the pieces we recommend sewing them together as you go. Each size has 5 different colour squares across the main body, and the squares become larger in accordance with each size.

Note, the sleeve squares are slightly different sizes to the body squares. The length can be made adjustable depending on your taste, however any adjustments will affect the stated yardage

 You can also buy this pattern on Ravelry here.

Get the Zodiac Checkmate Top pattern free when you purchase any bundle until Sunday 28th January 7pm GMT.

Just add both your bundle and pattern to your basket and the pattern will automatically be deducted from your total amount.
