Jardin de Givre Sweater | Knitting Pattern and Optional Kits

Introducing the latest masterpiece by Louise Robert: the Jardin de Givre Sweater! Embrace the beauty of the season with this stunning piece that promises to keep you cozy and stylish!

I fell in love with this beautiful Hagrid yarn when I saw it in this lovely hand-dyed color called Morning Dew! For this special yarn, I've wanted to design a raglan sweater that can be knitted in the round from top to bottom. The stitch pattern is worked on the back, front, and lower body, while the sleeves are worked in stockinette stitch. The stitch pattern is worked on multiple 8 stitches / 16 rounds and is easily memorized, making it a fun and relaxing project to knit. As it was the color of the yarn that guided the creation of this  model, the name Jardin de givre (which means Garden of  frost in French) seemed perfectly suited to this morning dew colored raglan, which will be pleasant to wear, specifically in cold weather! - Louise Robert

You have the option to purchase the pattern only or the knitting kit, which contains both the yarn and the pattern needed to knit this project!
