Yarn kit for the Mascara Sweater by LeKnit.

The Mascara Sweater features beautiful, delicate stripes. The particularly understated pattern is easy to knit and looks fabulous. 

You knit your Mascara Sweater seamlessly from the bottom up in rounds. You knit your sweater using a combination of fine alpaca wool and mohair. We have put together the most beautiful Sandnes yarns for you: Mini Alpakka with Tynn Silk Mohair. Both yarns complement each other perfectly and feel wonderfully delicate and incredibly soft.

The Mascara Sweater is a feminine eye-catcher that you will simply love!
