Ingrid cardigan (short version) by Önling, mohair knitting kit

Yarn kit Ingrid cardigan, in a striped short version, in Önling No 10 + No 17

Ingrid is our interpretation of the most beautiful, fluffy, silk mohair cardigan or summer kimono. It weighs only 210 g in a size M. Perfect across bare shoulders on a summer evening, where the sun is about to go down and the view of the sea and the sunset is enjoyed from the top of a sand dune in Kandestederne by the North Sea in North Jutland, Denmark. You can also throw it into a bag when going out. We have knitted it a short version as well (with and without stripes), so it goes with your summer wardrobe. The model is very oversize, which means app. 30 cm / 11. more than the chest width and with deep armholes.

In this yarn kit the kimono is knitted in 4 colors soft silk mohair w. glitter stripes. It is also available in a monochrome version, see related products below. Here you also find our Fluffy Fluffy Sweater, which is also designed with stripes and glitter.

Wool can last for years, but it requires good care. Washing is tough on your woolen garments and in general wool needs to be washed much less than other materials as it has a self-cleaning effect.
