To make navigating our website simpler, we are offering handy kits for this pattern. All kits include enough yarn to make this stunning sweater along with a limited edition button badge and a fab project bag to keep it all safe. Happy knitting!
The Virvenduse is designed by one of our pals, Aleks Byrd. Please be aware that this kit does not include the pattern as it is only available in Traditions Revisited: Modern Estonian Knits, a new book by Aleks and published by the folks over at Laine Magazine. You’ll be able to pick one up from their website or one of their stockists.
