Edith Sweater by Lene Holme Samsoe
- Description
The Edith Sweater by Lene Holme Samsoe has a lovely vintage feel, with references to the 1980s as well as more traditional fishermen’s sweaters, but with a bolder and slightly more playful feel. Knit from the top down, it combines a classic, relaxed silhouette with a beautifully textured yoke featuring an intricate arrangement of cables and ribbing that continues onto the sleeves and cuffs.
Our kits pair Sunday Morning DK - our soft, rustic blend of Bluefaced Leicester and Masham - with Halo, our delicate silk-mohair yarn. Together, they create a fabric that is both airy and substantial, with just the right balance of softness, drape and warmth. The result is a cozy, wearable sweater with plenty of texture and character.
