GITTE Top-down Sweater Pattern Kit in LACE by LANGYARNS
The GITTE sweater is a knitted garment worked top down in LACE by LANGYARNS, a sport weight yarn composed of 58% Superkid mohair and 42% silk. The fine mohair fibres, plied with silk, create a lightweight fabric with a soft halo, gentle sheen, and fluid drape.
The design is worked seamlessly from the neckline, using half brioche stitch to build a supple, textured surface with depth and elasticity. The top-down construction allows the fabric to flow naturally, resulting in a refined silhouette with understated elegance.
This kit includes the LANGYARNS LACE required for your selected size and the original LANGYARNS FATTO A MANO 278 pattern publication featuring GITTE.
