Estonia
Die Anleitung gibt es in Englisch & Deutsch!
Estonia is worked in top-down construction and features ¾ length sleeves.
I first fell in love with “Estonian Braids”, also called Lateral or Vikkel Braids, when I saw a friend knitting them. When I researched their origin and how to knit this exquisite little braid, I learned that they mostly were being used on socks, hats and gloves. I incorporated these exquisite little braids into this pullover design by having the braids replace the traditional ribbing on the neckline, the sleeves and the bottom ribbing.
