From the highly anticipated book, Knitted Kalevala published by Laine, we've put together the yarn set for Iku-Turso knit with Rauma Vams. This cozy, top-down sweater has a colorwork yoke, hem, and cuffs for lots of visual and knitting interest. Rauma Vams is a chunky, aran weight yarn that will knit up quickly and result is a cozy and woolly sweater. With a long folded collar, this sweater will be a beautiful and wonderfully warm garment.
This Kit Includes:
- 14-25x 50g balls of Rauma Vams (number of balls is dependent on the size you select)
- Large Woolly Thistle Tote Bag
- The Woolly Thistle Stitch Marker (Selection varies)
- Knitted Kalevala book (optional*)
*If you need this pattern, please choose the "WITH BOOK" option as this pattern is not currently available on Ravelry.
As always, it is important to manage gauge to ensure you will have enough yarn. If you are worried you can purchase an extra skein of the main color.
