PDF pattern with the instructions for knitting the Vefir by Jigsknits sweater.

Vefir (in Icelandic: webs) jumper was inspired by the intricate geometry of spider webs. The pattern combines simplicity of 2-colors stranded knitting with softness and warmth of Plötulopi – Icelandic unspun wool that seems to be fragile at first glance but in fact remains resilient and functional, as a spider web.
