The spring sweater is knitted top-down. It is a raglan sweater with a nice flower bud-like pattern in the raglan increases – hence the name ”spring sweater”. The neck is shaped using short rows to give the sweater a nice fit. The sleeves are knitted on double pointed needles or you can use the magic loop technique. It is knitted in 1 thread of Filcolana Arwetta together with 1 thread of Filcolana Paia, which makes it nice and warm and sparkling in the early spring sun.
