ISSA Sweater Pattern Kit in DONEGAL TWEED+ by LANGYARNS
ISSA is a textured sweater worked in DONEGAL TWEED+ by LANGYARNS, a worsted / aran weight yarn composed of 100% new wool. Spun and dyed in the traditional Donegal style, this yarn retains the spinning oils that allow the fabric to bloom after washing, developing generous volume and a soft handle while maintaining its authentic tweed character.
The design features refined rib detailing at the neckline, cuffs, and hem, with the body worked in an engaging sequence of knit and purl stitches. This interplay of texture adds quiet depth to the surface while letting the tweed’s character shine through, resulting in a sweater that feels equally sturdy and considered.
This kit includes the LANGYARNS DONEGAL TWEED+ required for your selected size and the original LANGYARNS PUNTO 77 pattern publication featuring ISSA.
