Galah (language: English; Is the Australian name for the Rose Kakadu. Which is very common there) is a comfy top down hoodie with a spectacular change of color in honeycomb pattern (brioche) at the yoke which is knitted in the round and features the atelyeah neckband. After separating sleeves and body you go on knitting to body hem first end up with a 1x1 ribbing after that go back to sleeves to finish this with a 1x1 rib as well. It has a regular generous silhouette - a shape to live in. I have opted for a pinky neon contrast color together with a wonderful neutral natural as the main color.
