Lillesol is a must-have pullover for this season in between chilly and warmer days!
It's designed by Isabell Kraemer to be knitted in short or long sleeve, in any light fingering weight yarn, the long sleeve version was created on AESTIVA, colorway Tabacco in the original sample.
The garment is worked seamlessly from the top down. The back is worked in plain Stockinette stitch while the front features a beautiful faux cable pattern panel at the center.
Body and sleeves can be lengthened or shortened by working more or less rounds before starting the edging. Size can be adjusted by working widthwise from the size you need/want for your chest, and lengthwise from the size you need/want for your upper arms.
