Link Sweater
€5.83
design : Tomomi Yoshimoto
Description
"This sweater combines crochet and knitting. The four-leaf clover motifs are worked with crochet hooks, and the other parts are worked with knitting needles.
The construction is rather unique and it starts from the bottom of the yoke up, then the other parts are worked top-down, which allows you to try the sweater on and choose the length and type of the neck as well as the hem and sleeves.
I hope you enjoy this freedom of choice, deciding as you go on the options to work."
Tomomi Yoshimoto
