    The Stockholm Sweater is a Biches & Bûches design, knit with Le Gros Lambswool + Le Petit Silk & Mohair 🧡

    Stockholm is a very warm, slightly fluffy sweater. It has cables all over, knit top down, in the round and without seamin. Slightly oversized - it is very fun to knit, the cables keeping you entertained all the way.

    This wool combination is simply gorgeous and makes a sweater that will last and last and last.

    "The inspiration behind this sweater: I actually designed and knit a very similar sweater a few years ago for men, as a gift to my husband, who has loved wearing it all winter long and during every winter these past years. It quickly became his favourite sweater and it was time for me to make my own!" Astrid
