The Hilppa sweater is knitted seamlessly from the top down using the summery Novita Sointu yarn and finished with embroidered flowers, ideal for getting rid of your scrap yarns. You can choose to add more flowers around the whole neck opening, for example, but even one embroidered flower will really brighten up the texture beautifully.
