Low vision details: The main text is black, 24 point, sans serif font and all text is black on a white background. No italics are used. The directions for the cable section are in written form in low vision pdf. The schematic measurements are written out, and the schematic is labeled with 24pt text. Images have alt text. For screen reader users: The low vision version is tagged to work with screen reading software and has been tested. Images have alt text. Abbreviations are used in the directions, they are defined but may be read aloud oddly. Numbers for multiple sizes are presented as lists of numbers within the text and may be difficult to keep track of when using a screen reader. If this is something you use we’d love your feedback on how we could improve the pattern formatting for screen readers.

As it requires only one skein, Poza is a great smaller-scale project that’s still full of neat little details that make it a really unique, beautiful accessory, perfect for dressing your outfit up or down. It’s worked in the round from the bottom up with gentle shaping to taper it towards the neck. The border stitch pattern gives a beautifully elaborate effect while being much easier to create than it looks. Those chevrons are echoed in the sparsely-dotted small Vs between the border and the neckline. Although the twisted rib edging that begins and ends the pattern can be a little challenging, it’s definitely worth the effort. The pattern has been updated in 2020 to include written direction for the large motif section at the bottom which was previously given in chart format only.
Purchasing from Ysolda’s website only allows one pdf to be attached per listing so that the low vision version is not included. Contact Ysolda via her site if you are unable to use Ravelry about obtaining the low vision version.
