Willow, by designer Meiju Kallio, is a versatile and simple garment with a twist. Featured in Laine Publishing’s 52 Weeks of Sweaters, this cabled pullover was inspired by the branches of the willow, which can be intertwined almost like braids. The cables flow from the shoulders into the body, turning in unexpected directions.
The kit includes the following colourway in the required quantity on Yarnadelic Worsted from John Arbon Textiles. The pattern is not included; it is available in Laine Publishing’s 52 Weeks of Sweaters book. You can find more information on the pattern on Ravelry.
