Ultraviolet is a fitted pullover seamlessly worked in the round from the top down, with narrow ¾ sleeves. The pullover features a lovely diamond motif on the front, plain fabric for body and sleeves and a very feminine darted waist shaping.
Rastita is a single ply DK merino yarn that allows you to knit an extremely light yet dense fabric. One of the characteristics of pure wool single ply yarns is that they felt slightly during knitting. Don’t be afraid: the felting process help to protect your garment against pilling!
