Novita Essentials: Rita Crochet Sweater

This crochet sweater is a stunning garment that will keep you cool even during the hottest summer days. The Rita sweater combines a mesh fabric and vertical stripes crocheted in trebles. The festive look is thanks to elegant glimmer of the Novita Valo yarn, containing tiny transparent sequins which will give the garment an irresistible sparkle especially when they are moving. The Rita sweater goes equally well with a dress or a skirt.
