Richter
Richter is a colorwork sweater that is knit from top down. The increase rows are worked in the main color sections only, making it an easy, entertaining knit. Speckled hand-dyed yarn shines through it’s intricate stitch pattern like stained glass windows. It’s name is based on Gerhard Richter who designed the colorful, pixellated windows of Cologne Cathedral.
