Arctic Light Sweater
The Arctic Light Sweater is a gorgeous cable knit sweater with intricate patterns on the front, back and sleeves. It’s worked top down on 5 mm (US8) needles with one strand of merino together with one strand of silk mohair to give it a lustrous sheen. The length is slightly cropped which makes it the perfect companion to wear with high-waisted jeans or a dress. The sweater is worked holding one strand of merino Sandnes Garn Double Sunday and one strand of Drops Kid Silk silk mohair together.
