Using a beautiful shade of Unforgettable®
yarn makes it possible to create a Bargello
effect of many colors—even though it is
really all one color. Knit the front and back
of this easy-to-wear sweater all in one-piece.
Be sure to read the notes for hints on doing
knit Bargello!

Notes
1. Sweater is worked in one piece
beginning at lower front edge. Front
is knit to underarms where stitches
are cast on for sleeves. Front/sleeve
piece is worked until half of sleeves
are complete then center stitches are
bound off and cast on again to form
neck opening. Work then proceeds
down back side of sleeves to
underarms where stitches are bound
off to complete sleeves and back knit
down to lower back edge.
2. Stitches are picked up around the
neck opening to begin working the
neck edging.
3. The body of the sweater is worked
in five intarsia columns. Each sleeve
adds one more intarsia section to the
piece.
4. When changing yarn, always pick up
the new yarn from under the yarn
being dropped to link the yarns and
prevent holes.
5. Before beginning, examine the
starting colors of each ball of yarn.
Make sure that each ball starts on
a different color. Winding off a few
yards may be needed to ensure that
the starting colors are all different.
6. To minimize tangling place each of
seven balls into its own zip-closure
plastic baggie with the end of yarn
hanging out and the baggie zipped
almost all the way closed. With
permanent marker, label each baggie
with one of A, B, C, D, E, Right Sleeve,
and Left Sleeve.
7. For sizes Small, Medium, and Large
swatch with yarn designated for one
of the sleeves.
8. For sizes 2X-Large and 3X-Large
swatch with one of the balls not yet
placed in a baggie.
