Petra brioche sweater

This model is a delicious, classic, no-frills brioche sweater. It can be worn throughout both fall and winter and is completely uncomplicated. You can go wild with the colors, as the sweater is worked with two different yarn qualities, or make a more subdued version if you so prefer. The most difficult problem is to choose how many different color versions you want to make!

The design is fairly tight with a positive ease of approx. 2-5 cm / 1-2 inches. You can go up a size or two if you want an oversize sweater.

Designed by Katrine Hannibal for Önling.
