Olivia Sweater
Here you get the opportunity to treat yourself to a lovely sweater in Kid Silk and BabyWool.
The sweater is knit using one strand of BabyWool and two strands of Kid Silk in different colors, which creates a beautiful play of colors. And it even makes the sweater look different, depending on whether you look at it up close or from afar.
Olivia can also be used over long-sleeved shirts and tops in the winter and as a light pullover sweater in the summer
It’s a sure hit in the wardrobe year after year!
Have fun!
