Impossible to Resist

Impossible to Resist

C$9.00Price
ITR (Impossible to Resist) is a design I just couldn’t get out of my head and one Sunday afternoon, after finding the perfect yarn and colours for it, I just dove in! The sweater practically knit itself! It sure is impossible to resist!
 
The top colorwork and bottom stockinette are done at slightly different gauges, resulting in a slight A-line shape body.
