Saltkaret Kit (published in issue 24)
$240.00 USD
Please select all options.
Saltkaret, a beautiful pullover with a tightly woven pattern. Inspired by Korsnäs, a traditional Finnish sweater where designer Sari lives. Textiles that have been painstakingly woven one by one have power, and just slipping through the sleeves will give you a sunny feeling.
Korsnäs seems to knit the braided part with a crochet, but it is arranged to knit with a stick needle. Since it is knitted with Brooklyn Tweed Loft, it is woven but lightly finished. Each color is well-familiar, and the chic colors give a fresh look to traditional color work.
Knit top down from the neck. I am happy that there is no binding. Separate the sleeves and body from the armpits and knit them in separate loops.
