Through Shadows, is a new yoke design pattern, inspired by the universe of Tolkien. The yoke sweater in knit in two strands of Plötulopi which makes it a very quick knit! The colorwork portion is kept minimal, and a few embroidered stars are added at the very end to infuse a whimsical element to the design. The sweater is meant to be worn quite cropped but some length can easily be added to change the silhouette.

The pattern will be released on Friday 5th of April.
