Annikki Sweater

The Annikki sweater looks straight out of an old crafting magazine – it’s soft, warm and full of everyday elegance. Designed by Sisko Sälpäkivi and knitted using the soft Wonder Wool DK yarn, the vintage sweater has an interesting construction. The back is knitted first, and from there you continue to the kimono style sleeves and over the shoulders to the front. Finally, the sleeve and
side seams are sewn. The neck opening is finished with a beautiful colourwork border.
