Luxury Wintersweater

Sometimes you just have to indulge yourself a bit of luxury. This Luxury Wintersweater is knitted in one thread of Lett together with one thread of Lunt or Lunt Fargespill. When making Lunt Fargespill I wanted to combine the graded balls of yarn with solid color yarn. This would give us an opportunity to knit larger garments in this wonderful yarn. The sweater is knitted from the bottom up, using one thread of each quality. You knit back and forth because the fishermans rib is easiest knitted this way.
