Ysolda Pyukkleen PDF

A sampler of some great stitch patterns allows the colors to shine in a subtly shaded pattern, although two colors would be equally effective. Ysolda’s Pyukkleen is knit using stranded colorwork in Aran weight yarn creates a fabulously warm fabric with plenty of body that means the loose cowl can stand up to protect your nose from the wind or be pulled down into attractive gathers. Pyukkleen is an excellent first stranded colorwork pattern with its geometric patterns, short floats, and lack of steeking. This design calls for six colors. The colorwork pattern is in chart form only.
