ELVIRA Sweater Pattern Kit in MALOU LIGHT by LANGYARNS
The ELVIRA sweater is a knitted garment worked in MALOU LIGHT by LANGYARNS, a worsted/aran weight yarn composed of 72% Alpaca (Baby Alpaca), 16% Nylon, and 12% Wool. The yarn’s distinctive net construction creates a feather-light fabric with warmth, softness, and gentle loft, combining luxury fibres with everyday practicality.
The design features a richly textured honeycomb brioche stitch through the body, contrasted with cable patterns worked along the arms. Ribbed edges and a high neck provide structure and definition, balancing the depth of texture with a clean, modern silhouette.
This kit includes the LANGYARNS MALOU LIGHT required for your selected size and the original LANGYARNS FATTO A MANO 278 pattern publication featuring ELVIRA.
