We are delighted to present Stockholm Sweater and its original Knitting kit, designed by Astrid at the Atelier with Le Gros Lambswool and Le Petit Silk & Mohair held together. Stockholm Sweater is wonderfully warm, with a high neckline, a cable pattern, and a slightly oversized silhouette. It is worked top down, in the round, and seamlessly.

Construction
Stockholm Sweater is knitted top-down and in the round, featuring a cable motif and raglan sleeves. The high neck, hem, and sleeve cuffs are worked in ribbing. The sleeves are also knitted from the top down and in the round.
