Yarn kit for the Through Shadows Sweater by Melody Hoffmann.

This sweater is inspired by Tolkien’s imagery and has a fairytale flair.

You knit your Through Shadows Sweater seamlessly from top to bottom in rounds with Plötulopi by Lopi Island. The unspun yarn is super light and delicate, yet very warm. Working with Plötulopi requires some practice as the yarn is very fragile. Here the yarn is worked two-stranded.
