Yarn kit for Jeju sweater by Aegyo Knit in Önling No 20 + silk mohair (excl pattern)
Jeju sweater takes its name from Jeju Island in South Korea which turns entirely pink every spring because of the beautiful cherry blossom trees that cover large parts of the island. As the seasons change, however, so can your Jeju sweater: knit it up in two high contrast colours for a minimalist look or choose more muted colours with a low contrast for a dreamier look. You first work the back, then move on to the shoulders and the two front pieces, which are worked flat. Then you join the work to knit in the round using two colours. The colourwork is charted. Jeju sweater is designed as a short and boxy sweater with an oversized fit.
Here we knit Jeju sweater in 2 strands held together, and . Resulting in a perfect balance of light and rustic, yet very soft, fluffy and cozy.
