This is a collabarotion with Nurja, a lovely yarn store in Finland.

Serigraphy – printmaking technique that uses a stencil made of fine synthetic material through which ink is forced.

This pullover is an all-over top-down colorwork sweater with a circular colorwork yoke. Short-row shaping is used to shape the neck. Sleeves are shaped with decreases. The length of the sweater can be modified with increasing/decreasing the pattern repeats. Perfect project also for all kinds of scrap yarns.
