15% introductory discount for both Frostberry sweater and Frostberry hat valid until 15.06.2025

FROSTBERRY is a round yoke sweater, worked seamlessly and in the round. The sweater features an elongated stitch motif with cables and nupps / bobbles around the yoke, and faux seams running along the sides of both the body and the sleeves. The sweater is worked in reverse stockinette, however the right and wrong sides are swapped after the yoke is completed, so the rest of the sweater is knitted on the wrong (stockinette) side and there is not much purling involved.
