This seamless ¾ sleeve summer sweater is easy to knit and comfortable to wear. The pattern consists of simple lace and linen/cotton/bamboo -yarn feels light and settles beautifully. So pretty, so easy! Knit and enjoy!

The instructions have been updated 7/2024 and also include instructions for the short-sleeved version.

Minja on kevyt ja kauniisti laskeutuva ¾ -hihainen neulepusero, jonka kaarroketta koristavat pystyt pitsiraidat. Pusero neulotaan saumattomasti ylhäältä alas. Pellavasekoitelanka antaa neuleelle ihanan elävän ja himmeästi kiiltävän pinnan.

Ohje on päivitetty 7/2024 ja sisältää ohjeen myös lyhythihaiseen malliin.
