THE FROST guide is an PDF file, that will be send to your email after you buy it. So remember to write you email when making the order :)
The FROST sweater was born from the feeling of making a sweater without a plan. Step by step the ideas came as the knitting progressed. The end result surprised even me how wonderful the sweater turned out. The model works for men and women. If you want more masculinity, leave out the pattern on the sleeve and hem :)
The sweater is made from Lettlopi yarn, that is 100% Icelandic wool yarn.
A genuine Icelandic sweater is knitted from Icelandic Lopi yarn, whose production has a long tradition in Iceland.
