The Mihlali Pullover is a circular yoke colourwork sweater knit seamlessly from the top down. It features an easy to memorise colourwork motif that begins at the bottom of the yoke and continues to the hem, with matching details on the straight sleeves right down to the cuff.

Knit in a soft linen-blend yarn, Mihlali has a slightly fuzzy texture that adds warmth, comfort and an effortlessly cozy look. This pullover is a true wardrobe chameleon – equally at home paired with jeans, tailored trousers, dresses or skirts! Whether you’re dressing up or keeping it casual, Mihlali brings a touch of handmade elegance to every outfit. The sample is knit with two strands of fingering weight yarn held together at an Aran weight gauge.
