Yara is a modern pullover using Fika with Aerial Color in an allover mosaic slip stitch pattern. The result is a lush and cozy piece to wear all fall. Two strands of Aerial Color are worked together throughout. Pieces are worked flat, then sewn together. Shoulders are shaped using short rows, then joined using 3-needle bind-off.
