Kits
This kit contains the yarn + pattern needed to knit the Icelandic Alpine Sweater! The Alpine Sweater body and sleeves are worked bottom up and connected at the underarm to knit the color work yoke. Note that this wool is ‘rustic’ wool, but softens over time with use. Icelandic wool makes the perfect outer layer – tough, durable, and naturally temperature regulating. This is a knitting kit, NOT a completed product.
