I boiled down into colorwork patterns the episodes that stuck out in my mind after reading the novels. Some motifs may not be very recognizable if not closely observed (or even closely observed). If you are curious, please refer to the explaining in this text from what episode each pattern comes and imagine the scenes while knitting this sweater. I initially planned it as a Faire Isle sweater, but to reduce steeking to the minimum, I transformed it into a top-down raglan sweater. The construction has thus become simpler and you will find it easy if you are used to knitting top-down garments. I hope you enjoy knitting!　－Tomomi Yoshimoto 【about pattern】 English text pattern/PDF only.
