Two “Besjes” (Dutch for currants) in one pattern; “Redcurrant” has a normal neckline, “Blackcurrant” a wide neckline.
This comfy pullover is knitted from one side to the other and is completely seamless because of the kitchener stitch!
It has curly hems, 3/4 sleeves, a line across front & back and a positive ease of approx. 9 cm.
This yarn is something special, extremely soft, light-weighted and perfect for summer as it is half cotton/half wool. It does shrink & grow so finished measurements (after hand-wash) are included in the pattern. Happy knitting!
