Overview
What's in the kit
Kastali — Castle: “this pattern has many stories to tell with mountains, battlements, shields and lances. Fly in your dreams.” The original long version of Védís Jónsdóttir’s Kastali: a Léttlopi pullover with a gently A-shaped body (wider at the hem), seed-stitch edges, patterned sleeves, a wide circular yoke and a tall 18 cm ribbed collar — here in rust heather with navy, black, celery green and golden. Body and sleeves are worked in the round, then joined for the yoke. Seven sizes, S to 4XL.
Included
- Icelandic Léttlopi wool yarn — yarn for the largest size is included, so every size is covered
