Saunseray is a roomy, drop-shoulder sweater knitted bottom up, in the round and flat. The sleeves are picked up and worked from the top down. The sweater is full of easy-to-execute cables, which provide an engaging yet relaxing knitting experience. All of the cables are done on the right side whenever knitting flat. The sweater was inspired by a modern capsule closet: it is versatile and easy to style in many ways. Saunseray is the epitome of cosy, while also elegant at the same time.
Each yarn kit contains the amount of yarn needed to complete the project in the selected size.
