Description Details Shipping info

Varpu is worked top-down, mainly as one piece. It is swift and effortless knit – easy enough for beginners and a nice snack for more experienced knitters. It is knitted in Børsted Alpakka (brushed alpaca) by Sandnes Garn. Even though the yarn is categorised as a bulky weight yarn, it is light and airy. Therefore a regular, thick bulky yarn would not be the best substitute for Børstet Alpakka. If you are not able to get the original yarn, try to find a similar alternative.

This pattern is a digital download. After purchase, you will be given a unique link to download the pattern to your computer, phone or tablet. Due to the nature of PDF downloads, we do not offer refunds on digital purchases.
