Fleur de Chartres Sweater

As the yoke expands, various window motifs emerge. The fleur-de-lis motif is repeated at the hem and cuffs, both finished with twisted 1×1 ribbing. To keep the vibrant contrast colors discreet, the Ladderback Jacquard method is used for stranding, with supplementary charts provided at the end of the pattern.
