Neretina
Neretina is a top-down seamless yoke sweater that is knit in the round. The neckline features a Latvian braid, and is followed by short rows at the back of the neck for a comfortable fit. The yoke has stranded colourwork inspired by Latvian patterns. There is optional waist and hip shaping to add feminine shape, and the wrist cuffs and hem are finished off with echoing elements of the yoke design and Latvian braids.
