Knitting and Embroidery Kit: Si Patrona!

This yarn package includes both the pattern, embroidery yarn (18 colors!), water-soluble non-woven fabric and yarn for the sweater. Si Patrona! is an easy-to-knit, lovely and warm sweater, with Mexican-inspired embroidery on the back. You choose whether you want to knit a high or low neck. The sweater is knitted from the top down with a thread of Peruvian together with a thread of Tilia. Once the neck is knitted, reverse rows (German Short Rows/GSR) are used to shape the neck, while increasing to raglan. The length of the sweater is up to you. Measure along the way so that you get the desired length. If you knit it longer than the measurements given in the pattern, you must make sure that you have enough yarn.
