The Luckenbooth is a traditional Scottish love symbol made of interlocking hearts. This pullover sweater with drop sleeves made in worsted-weight yarn features the Luckenbooth symbol in the center panels which is surrounded by traditional cables. Sizes are offered for teens size 12 through women’s size 6X. The pattern is inspired by a beautiful pendant I acquired about 30 years ago.
