Berroco Papakolea is a women’s sweater that is a gorgeous addition to any spring or summer wardrobe. You’ll love watching the colors of Medina change as you knit this generously sized open cardigan. This sweater is flattering on any shape; you’ll want one in every color! Knit in two pieces sideways from sleeve cuffs to center back, can’t get any easier than that. Berroco Medina is a self-striping marled yarn that presents you colors that are inspired by the Mediterranean. This cotton blend yarn is machine-washable, making it perfect for daily wear garments and accessories. While the acrylic adds durability, the viscose provides a soft touch you’ll want to have against your skin.
