Ombeline Sweater
You can buy Ombeline Sweater kits in the original yarn from Knit Circus here!
Ombeline Sweater is a top-down stranded colorwork yoke pullover, knit using a gradient yarn and a matching speckled yarn that together create a beautiful intricate design that looks more complicated than it is!
This sweater uses the same motif from Ombeline Cowl and Ombeline Hat, which were inspired by the beautiful stained glass windows in the cathedrals of Paris.
Ombeline Sweater is knit seamlessly from the top-down in the round, with a double-rolled neck hem, colorwork yoke, hip-length body and fitted long sleeves.
