Reitti Sweater Knitting Kit
Published in the Laine Anniversary Issue, Reitti is a boxy colourwork sweater featuring simple shapes and motifs, easy-to-knit repeats and no long floats. Designed by Weichien Chan, it is knitted seamlessly from the top down in the round with Laine x Novita DK and features a round yoke.
The pattern offers plenty of room for customisation, including two body and sleeve lengths, plus optional short rows for a looser fit around the chest. The yarn quantities in this kit are based on the longer version of the sweater. If you plan to knit the shorter version, you can adjust the yarn quantities in your cart before purchasing.
The sample sweater is knitted in Weathered Driftwood (MC) and Silent Storm (CC).
Please note: The knitting pattern is not included in this kit. It is available in the Laine Anniversary Issue, sold separately.
