MELISSA Sweater Pattern Kit in VAYA by LANGYARNS
MELISSA is a knitted sweater worked in VAYA by LANGYARNS , a DK weight yarn composed of 74% cotton, 16% virgin wool (merino extrafine), and 10% yak . This balanced fibre blend creates a fabric that is breathable yet gently warming, with a soft, fluid handle ideal for lighter, transitional knitwear.
The design is characterised by an all-over eyelet pattern that brings openness and subtle texture to the fabric. The clean construction allows the stitch-work to take centre stage, resulting in a refined sweater with a calm, contemporary feel.
This kit includes the LANGYARNS VAYA required for your selected size and the original LANGYARNS FATTO A MANO 280 pattern publication featuring MELISSA.
