Knitting kit for Limoncello sweater in Önling No 4 + silk mohair
Limoncello is a beautiful sweater with a gorgeous, feminine lace pattern on back and front and fine, soft edges in silk mohair. The name is derived from the Italian lemon liqueur, which is a beautiful yellow color. Limone means lemon in Italian, but it can of course be knitted in all colors and fits perfectly with a pair of jeans.
We knit Limoncello sweater in our light and soft merino wool Önling No 4 and silk mohair for the edges. Even though it is knitted in wool, it is comfortable and light to wear.
This yarn kit contains: Önling No 4 and silk mohair for the elected size and a digital pattern.

ABOUT PATTERNS FROM ÖNLING
In 95% of all kits from Önling, you get a digital pattern and yarn when you buy a knitting kit. Read more about how to get hold of your digital knitting pattern here.
In some cases, however, you will not receive a pattern as part of your order:
If you buy a Yarn kit, you will only receive yarn for the design in question. Yarn kits are only sold for selected designs from external designers, where we do not have the right to sell the pattern. When a kit is sold without pattern, you can always see it in the header, which will say (excl pattern) in the header.
In very few cases, however, we provide a printed pattern rather than a digital one:
- For a select, few designs from PetiteKnit, we will add a printed pattern to the parcel - but for most PetiteKnit designs, you will not receive a pattern, as they are mainly sold as yarn kits (excl pattern). In these cases you will always be able to see it in the header, where it says (excl pattern).
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.
