Yarn kit for the Celeste Sweater by PetiteKnit.

This beautiful Norwegian sweater is knitted from top to bottom with a round yoke. It has a detailed pattern and is therefore a great introduction to Norwegian knitting!

Please note that when knitting with a pattern (Fair Isle) you often need to use a needle that is 0.5 - 1 mm thicker than when knitting in one color. Therefore, make a single-color and multi-color swatch before you start knitting.

This new classic from Petiteknit will stay relevant forever and will be with you for a long time! And the best thing is: Peer Gynt gets softer and softer the more you wear it, but it is still really robust and easy to care for! The perfect mix!

We have also put together the matching colors of the Celeste Sweater Junior for you. Knit the Celeste Sweater for the whole family!
