Inspired by the beautiful illustrations of Astrid Lindgren’s The Tomten storybook, and companion to the Tomten Socks, the Tomten Pullover is finally here!

The design features top-down, round yoke, construction. Latvian braids accent the transitions between ribbing and stockinette as well as framing the color-work section.
The fit is cropped, perfect for over a dress, or high wasted pants/skirt.
