The Hidden Forest Sweater is a statement piece that will allow you to show off all of the skills in your brioche toolkit, with tutorial videos included to help you with any new skills you need to learn. Cable windows allow alternate color brioche designs to peek through, then the dominant color is switched as the cables travel across the shoulders. The sport weight yarn provides the perfect balance of not being too warm while still knitting up quickly. The body and sleeves are knit separately from the bottom up, in the round, then joined seamlessly to work the yoke.
