Yarn kit for the Celeste Sweater by PetiteKnit.

This beautiful Norwegian sweater is knitted from the top down with a circular yoke. It features a detailed pattern, making it a great introduction to Norwegian knitting!

Note that when knitting with a pattern (Fair Isle), you often need to use needles 0.5–1 mm thicker than when knitting in a single color. Therefore, make both a single-color and a multicolored gauge swatch before starting the actual knitting.  

This classic by PetiteKnit will remain timeless forever and accompany you for a long time! Best of all, Peer Gynt becomes softer and more supple with wear while still being extremely durable and easy to care for! The perfect combination!

We have also put together the matching colors for the Celeste Sweater Junior. Knit the Celeste Sweater for the whole family!
