Description

Welcome to the Special December Knitting Kit, with Skipavika Jumper, Special limited edition 🎀 We are thrilled to present this new Biches & Bûches design for one of this year's December Knitting kit, with specially designed (and made) different tools and gifts to accompany your gorgeous Wool Bundle and Knitting project.

"The inspiration behind my design came from a swatch I made in seed stitch while I was working on color combinating our wool bases and I just rediscovered the simple beauty of this stitch pattern. I added the stripes to give the jumper an impression of lightness combined with a contrasting color. I am thinking vacation, happiness, and outdoor life when I look at the Skipavika jumper. The name is actually taken from the road leading up to my grandma's house on the top of an island south of Bergen, Norway. " - Astrid

SPECIAL INFORMATION

Skipavika Jumper

Skipavika Jumper is worked in Seed Stitch with two yarns held together and a Stripe Pattern in an alternate color.
The back and the front are worked flat, bottom-up and sewn together with a split hem. The sleeves are worked in the round until the armholes and the sleeve caps are then worked flat. Skipavika Jumper has a V-neck collar in Seed Stitch.

Special Large bag & Pencil case & Pouch

Printed in France, we have designed a new large (tote) project bag, accompanied by a Pencil case to keep your knitting needles, and small knitting materials. Each project's wool bundle also has its own little Biches & Bûches pouch.

Hot Quality Beverage

We have teamed up with two incredible partners for this part - tea on one hand, from a French producer importing organic tea that tastes and smells incredible and a special Cocoa with adaptogens by Maison Loüno on the other. Both are organic, of high quality, delicious, packed in eco-friendly packaging.

If you are in doubt with the size - Choosing your regular size will give you an oversize fit (intended design), but if you wish a tighter fit, you can size down one size
Example: If I usually wears Medium, I would choose to knit the Medium size, and the knit will have its oversize style
