My original inspiration for this sweater came from the shapes of trees and branches. The color of this Lettlopi yarn reminded me of dark green-blue woods with secret paths and mysterious creatures hiding in the shadows.

The sweater is worked bottom-up in a cozy loose fit which makes it perfect for cold days.
