Japana – whispering in Japanese - is a high-low pullover in a ridge pattern with swinging side panels that ends in a high standing collar. The side panels are picked up and knitted after the side seams are done. Wear it as you like; hanging loose or gathered with a belt or with a shawlpin at the front. Japana is knitted in the lovely wool and silk yarn Madara from Noro.
