Dovetail Sweater (2020E)
Dovetail Sweater (2020E)
Dovetail is a worsted weight colorwork sweater featuring Alegria Grande Bocados! Bocados, Spanish for little bites, are our 25g/49yd mini-skeins of Alegria Grande. With 10 colors in the Bocados palette, there are plenty of beautiful 5-color combinations to inspire!
Dovetail's colorwork is written rather than charted, so it's approachable for any level of colorwork knitter!
A note about ease: Anaïs is wearing the 34½” Foil version of Dovetail with approximately 2 inches of ease and Kiley is wearing the 42½” Kohl version of Dovetail with approximately 6" of ease.

They arrived in excellent shape and were everything I hoped they would be ! ! !
Mysteries are exciting - and that's what this shopping experience was.
Beautiful color. Great feel. I can't wait to start knitting.
Great looking yarn. Surprising, vibrant color. Thanks.
I love Serena it is a perfect year round yarn. The drape is always beautiful and it has great stitch definition. Not to mention that every color produced by Manos is magic. The staff at Fairmount Fibers is always kind and amazing! Thanks so much for my recent order! Christy Pyles
The pattern is well written, the yarn is a dream to knit with and I love the color
Very nice and its easy to follow the pattern, I'm in need of a new scarf, so for a change I'm making it for me.
I love the inventory of merchandise that's available to order online and also patterns too.
The patterns look lovely, and they'll keep me busy while I'm recovering from my surgery. Thank you again.
I’ve made it twice. It’s lovely. The yarn is dreamy. Thank you for coordinating 5 colors as a kit.
I actually had the free pattern delivered, and will definitely try more of the patterns. It was a very easy process, thank you.
