Brioche Lite Sweater
This sweater is a truly magical knit! The combination of wooly Noro Ito and cloud-like Silky Kid gives a gorgeous look which is so cuddly, but still light! You’ll want to be pretty comfortable with basic Brioche Rib for this sweater - but it starts in the round (which is easier than flat). The kit includes all the yarn you need (for your chosen size) and a FREE pattern download!
