Alpaca Yarns Pattern 1138 – Women’s Stripe Sweater
$6.90 NZD
Alpaca Yarns Pattern 1138 is an easy-to-wear stripe sweater that’s as fun to knit as it is to throw on. Using soft Indiecita Baby Brushed Alpaca (14 ply), it mixes a colour-block body with striped sleeves for a relaxed, modern look. The brushed texture gives it that soft, haloed finish alpaca is famous for, while the drop-shoulder shape keeps things casual and comfy.
