A fabulous colourwork yoke sweater by Isabell Kraemer, knitted with the wonderful Norwegian yarns from Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk.

Nasrin (the "Wild Rose" sweater) is worked seamlessly from the top down. First some short-rows are worked back and forth to create a higher back neck. Then the yoke is worked top down to sleeve separation, where some final short-rows finish the yoke shaping. Sleeve sts are placed on hold to work the body down to the hem. Then sleeve sts are picked up again to work the sleeves in the round top down to the cuffs.
