Essex Sweater
This beautifully design perfectly reflects the rich and lush character of its deep evergreen hue, reminiscent of the vibrant landscapes of Essex.
Knitted with Khullu yarn, a somptuous blend of untreated merino and yak, Essex is worked from the top-down. The upper body showcases smooth stockinette stitch, while the lower body and sleeves are embellished with the charming Cloverleaf eyelet pattern, adding an elegant touch of texture. Now is the perfect moment to bring some green to your knitting, just in time for St. Patrick’s Day!
