Yarn kit for the Foundation Sweater by LeKnit.
The Foundation Sweater is a cozy dream. This simple and super casual sweater will make you feel like you're floating on clouds.
You knit your Foundation Sweater seamlessly from top to bottom with raglan increases. It is knitted with three threads using one thread of Ballerina Chunky Mohair and two threads of Alpaca Thread. This makes the sweater incredibly fluffy, light and super soft.
The color contrasts create enchanting melange effects that simply look good. The sweater is undoubtedly beautiful and super easy to knit. With a large needle, you'll be finished quickly and have an elegant, feminine piece of the highest class.
