Feki by Åsa Buchta

Craft: Knitting

This knitted sweater features delicate eyelet and garter details on cuffs and collar. Feki starts off with back and front panels knitted separately, then joined at shoulders with a 3-needle bind-off. Stitches are picked up for side panels that transition into balloon sleeves. This knitted sweater is flattering and perfect for every occasion.
