A beginner-friendly, easy to knit and easy to wear sweater.
To me, the fit of this sweater is one of the best I’ve ever come up with. It’s astonishingly simple but carefully sized to flatter, embrace and cocoon many different body shapes.
This mohair winter edition of the Pale Shelter is knit using a double thread of yarn for extra coziness, one thread of alpaca (Alpaca 2 Isager Yarn) and one of silk mohair (also from Isager). The fabric is plush, sweet and caressing and I can easily see myself wrapped in it everyday until April.
