Dinosaur Sweater

Dinosaur Sweater is a simple and basic staple sweater that showcases a dinosaur design on the front. The body is worked back and forth, while sleeves are worked in the round. The front is worked from the bottom up and the back from the top down. Dinosaur Sweater is knit using 2 strands of Merino held together throughout.
You begin working bottom up and back and forth, starting with front hem. You continue with stockinette stitch and colorwork back and forth over front, and shape for armholes. Stitches are bound off for the neckline and each shoulder is subsequently worked separately back and forth until shoulder pieces are joined with new cast on stitches at back neck. You then work the back top down to the hem, back and forth. Side seams are grafted and you pick up stitches for the sleeves and work these in the round down to the cuffs. The sweater is finished with a ribbed neckband.
The colorwork pattern is charted only and it is worked using the intarsia technique.
Please note that when adding yarn to this pattern you add yarn for the main color and contrast color 1. We recommend using leftover yarns for the rest of the contrast colors.
