Lopi Spírall PDF

Spírall from Lopi is a showstopping colorwork pullover with a half-zipper inset. Great for both men and women, this sweater has swirls scalloping around the yoke that looks intricate and colorful with a three-color palette. Knit in the round from the bottom up, the sleeves and body are joined to work the yoke in one piece. Underarms are grafted closed during finishing and a steek creates the opening for the zipper once the pullover is complete. Álafosslopi is a classic, rustic Icelandic wool with great insulating properties that’s perfectly suited to colorwork projects. Colorwork patterns are charted only.
