Eye-catching pullover with seed stitch stripe pattern used as a background for the lovely lace pattern that appears at the bottom of the garment and sleeves, and continues up the front and back as a central panel. The design can be lengthened or shortened easily to suit any figure. “Linnea is the Swedish name for Twinflower, named after Carl von Linne, the famous 18th century botanist known as the Father of Taxonomy - it was his favorite flower. The plant itself is small and unobtrusive; the sweater is a lot more striking, and not a garment to choose if you want to go unnoticed.”
