Meaning soft, comfortable, or ease in Saskrit, ‘Sukha’ is built from the root words Su and kha which translate to “good space”. This feminine, boxy sweater is a celebration of all the above. Worked from the bottom up, Sukha features twisted ribbing and an all over cabled pattern which when worked has a rhythm on your needles that calms your mind.
