Tiri Sweater (ENG)

The Tiri Sweater is knitted from the top down with one thread of Drops Air together with one thread of Drops Kid Silk, or alternatively Soft Norwegian Lamb Wool from Skappel combined with Thin Silk Mohair from Sandnes. The sweater has a cropped, oversized fit that gives a boxy and light look - perfect as a relaxed everyday sweater. The design is simple and beginner friendly, but also a quick and nice project for more experienced knitters.
