Hip hip hooray <\/span>for Sweater Day<\/span>! with a new edition, comes a new sweater. Here, just for you, is a free pattern to make a classic sweater with a diamond motif, but with a personality all of its own.<\/span><\/p>

The central motif is created by small braids which gradually adopt the shape of large diamonds, which are <\/span>adorned with a simple grain of rice. The final result is a chunky sweater with a modern cut and a <\/span>that wears <\/span>comfortably.<\/span><\/p>

We wanted to offer a sweater for all occasions: that goes with trousers, with a long skirt, with sneakers, with boots. And the sisters from <\/span>Knitting For Breakfast<\/a><\/b>, creators of this exclusive design, have well and truly succeeded!<\/span><\/p>

The yarn chosen for this project is Piuma in the colour of lace, a lightly twisted wick of pure wool. However, on our online store you can find many other colours from the Classics Collection, and also from the Printed and Tempera collections, these are truly wonderful!<\/span>
