Vita Sweater
Vita sweater is an engaging lacy pattern, where pattern and fit work together closely. Therefore the pattern can only be found with a single stitch count, and the sweater’s size and fit are dependent on which yarn and gauge it is made in. Here Vita is shown in 3 different yarn combinations, which gives it a circumference of 112, 119 and 133 cm 44, 47 and 52 inches respectively.
