Hella

Hella is a comfortable winter sweater with an oversized fit to accomodate layering. Combine with denim for an everyday relaxed look or worn with a long skirt for boho elegance.

The sweater is worked inside out, seamlessly starting at the collar. Short rows at the back and sides of the neckband are worked to shape a slightly higher back. The stitches are then split into sleeves, back and front and four seam sections. You will be knitting brioche stitch in the round. There are increases along the yoke and decreases along the sleeves.
