Yarn kit for the Celeste Sweater - Man by PetiteKnit.

The beautiful Celeste Sweater is a classic Norwegian sweater and comes here in a version for men, with great colors, very classic! The pattern is small and therefore also suitable for beginners in Norwegian knitting.

Please note that when knitting with a pattern (Fair Isle) you often need to use a needle that is 0.5 - 1 mm thicker than when knitting in one color. Therefore, make a single-color and multi-color swatch before you start knitting.

This classic from PetiteKnit is for the whole family, knit it in a matching look for all of you!
And the best thing is: Peer Gynt gets softer and softer the more you wear it, and it really snuggles up, but it's still really robust and easy to care for! The perfect mix!

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