Just in time for cooler weather, we are thrilled to share this beautiful design by Andrea Yetman for Biscotte Yarns ♥
This sweater ressembles everything that I love about combining the beauty of nature into knitting ♥ The low contrast colorwork resembles trees, leaves and all things woodsy! Featuring a double knit collar, wide cuffs and a twisted cable hem, this sweater is a very fun and engaging knit. - Andrea
