Description

The Biches & Bûches no. 26 is our little chunky sweetheart of a sweater. The kind that makes you feel like a cute little bear. In the summer we have been enjoying many meals outside in the sun, or under our big tree when it gets too hot, as it often does here in the south of France. We are then surrounded by lavender bushes and humming bees, and loads of pretty butterflies, especially white ones, just flying around us. Those little ones inspired Astrid for this sweater, and got their own spot on the upper part. Yes, we call them small butterflies.

THE WOOL BUNDLE

The Biches & Bûches wool bundle contains all the original wool in the chosen color(s) and for the chosen size and the Biches & Bûches knitting bag.
