Little Lohtu
Little Lohtu is a sweet kids’ version of Lohtu cardigan. The cardigan is worked flat, top-down, and seamlessly. The cardigan has a round yoke and the body is worked in two color brioche which makes for a warm but airy and light cardigan. The cardigan has long sleeves, and the back of the neck is shaped taller with short rows. The cardigan is finished off with button bands worked in garter stitch.
