Top Down Sweater Workshop

$75.00

This workshop is designed around The Humulus Pullover by Isabelle Kraemer. Knitting top down sweaters teaches you many new techniques as well as when you are done with the knitting, there is very little finishing other than hiding your ends!

The store sample was knit using Washted from Malabrigo in Piedras (6 skeins) and Cereza (1 skein) for the contrast color.
