Originally designed by Kari-Helene for her wedding, Mdina has an understated elegance and sophistication which would look equally good with casual clothes instead of a wedding dress! Knitted in one piece, Mdina will keep even the most experienced knitter intrigued. With its blend of stitches and integral shaping, Mdina is a joy to knit and just so easy to wear.
