Kuusikossa draws its inspiration from nature. The stripes in the hem form a spruce tree pattern. Kuusikossa sweater is a simple raglan sweater which is worked from the top down. The fit is slightly oversized. Pattern consists of simple lace and stockinette stitch. So pretty, so easy! Knit and enjoy!

Kuusikossa on kauniisti laskeutuva, joustava ja pehmeä pitkähihainen neulepusero, jonka hihoja ja helmaa koristavat yksinkertaiset pystyt pitsiraidat. Raidoista muodostuu helmaan kuusiaitakuvio. Pusero neulotaan saumattomasti ylhäältä alas. Kahden langan yhdistelmä luo ihanan pehmeän ja pörröisen pinnan.
