Sonderbar
Sonderbar is a circular yoke sweater with a striking, graphic colorwork. Sonderbar is the German word for “strange, mysterious”. It’s name was inspired by the yarn brand Sonder Yarn Co who generously yarn supported this design.
The Yarn
I picked a DK yarn, a yarn weight that knits up quickly and warms wonderfully. DK yarns are one of my favorites as they give some body to colorwork patterns and makes them stand out even when seen from a distance.
