We are thrilled to present the original Knitting kit for the Biches & Bûches Skipavika Jumper, designed by Astrid at the Atelier with Le Petit Lambswool and Le Gros Silk & Mohair 🐚

"The inspiration behind Skipavika 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 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
