Lopi Hela Short Cardigan With Zip Kit includes all the Álafosslopi needed to knit this steeked cardigan. There are two options in each size for this kit, a three color option worked in blues and a two color option worked in greys. Please note that a zipper is not included in the kit and must be purchased separately.
Lopi's Hela Cardigan is a sophisticated take on a classic Icelandic design. With its short, fitted shape and convenient zip closure, Hela is all about modern clean lines. The traditional yoke designs are brought up to date in subdued neutrals, making this a perfect everyday sweater that will go with everything. Body and sleeves are worked in the round from lower edge to underarm, then joined and yoke is worked in the round over entire cardigan. Pattern and decreases are worked from chart. The front is steeked open.
