PURPLECOKE Sweater by K. Schneider
PURPLECOKE Sweater
The slightly oversized and cropped raglan pullover is worked in rounds from the top down. Then the sleeves are worked in the round and finished with ribbed cuffs. The combination of ITO Urugami and ITO Sensai is just perfect for spring, the sweater is light warm, very soft and incredibly light.
Purple Coke Sweater is the sleeve version of the shirt Purple Coke. I also added a collar and long ribbed cuffs to the sweater. The instructions for both can be left out to get the same look as the Purple Coke shirt.
