The Luisa sweater is an easy-to-crochet, sporty sweater to wear all year round. It will keep you warm in autumn and winter, is airy in spring and summer, and accompanying you through cool summer nights.

This sweater is constructed in 4 separate pieces that are worked flat from the bottom-up: 2 body panels and 2 arms.

The instructions are written in such a way that you can make the sweater your own, placing the stripes as you like or leaving it without completely. You can also choose the colors for the hem and sleeve ribbing. So you can create the sweater of your dreams.
