Coloured crosses Junior by Anne Ventzel, No 20 + silk mohair kit

Knitting kit for Coloured Crosses Junior by Anne Ventzel in Önling No 20 and No 10 Silk mohair

Coloured Crosses Junior is a lovely and soft sweater with an elegant stranded colorwork pattern worked in four colors. The sweater is worked with edges in twisted rib and a soft, rolling edge at the neck. The design is worked from the top down. The first part of the yoke is worked back and forth, while the neckline is being formed, then the work is joined in the round. If you follow the instructions for the yoke carefully, the stranded pattern and the raglan increases become symmetrical and meet correctly at the armholes.

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.
