Energy Earth Tones wool sweater - Knitting Kit

Orka — Energy: a surge of power comes from within, reaching out. This sweater is knitted holding four strands of unspun Plötulopi on big 10 mm needles, so it grows wonderfully fast. The earth-tone colourway moves from midnight blue through plum, wine red and dark amber to oatmeal and a light blue at the top, blended strand by strand as you knit.
