We love a hybrid project, and this week’s Must Make combines crochet and knitting to create this lovely sweater that is ready for layering. You’ll crochet the clover motifs at the yoke and knit the body. A unique construction style lets you try on the sweater multiple times to check the fit and customize the neck, length, hem, and sleeves. This piece is designed in De Rerum Natura Ulysse, a woolen yarn of soft white french (Mérinos d’Arles from Provence) and black Portugese Merino (Merinos Petra from Alentejo Valley) produced in France in an ecological way. It is a truly special yarn and a truly unique sweater design!
