Yukiho Sweater by Ayano Tanaka

Sale price€35,59 EUR
Ayano Tanaka x Biches & Bûches

We are delighted to present this lovely design by Ayano Tanaka, the Yukiho Sweater, with the Biches & Bûches yarn Le Coton & Alpaca, beautiful and so comfortable to wear 🐚 

 'Yukiho, a Japanese first name meaning snow-covered ridges, bring to mind a quiet, all-white landscape. Only the shadows reveal the unevenness of the field. The design works well with a variety of yarns, but using the suggested yarn, you can enjoy its very soft and luxurious character. This natural fiber yarn also has an uneven texture, with thick and thin areas and softly puffed spots throughout.' — Ayano Tanaka

Ayano Tanaka is a knitwear designer based in Japan, and is also behind the design of Botanique Sweater 🪷

Details

Construction
The sweater is worked from the neck down, using a basic circular yoke construction. The neckline is worked using a Herringbone Cast-On, which creates a stretchy, slightly thicker edge. The slightly longer cuffs and hem ribbing give it a refined look. It is ideal for meditative knitting and everyday wear.
