Introducing the Kolga Pullover: A Timeless Norse-Inspired Knit
The Kolga pullover embodies the beauty of Norse design, drawing its name from the word "Kolga," which means "cool wave." This stunning piece features the intricate Honeycomb cable pattern, creating a wave-like texture that flows gracefully throughout the garment. Designed with an A-line front, the Kolga's side seam and vent are positioned towards the back, allowing the pullover to move fluidly, reminiscent of soft ocean currents. Handcrafted using the luxurious Walk Collection Merino Sport yarn, the Kolga is knitted in pieces and seamed to ensure the ultimate fit and comfort.
With a stylish folded-down cowl, this pullover offers versatility, providing a chic collar that elegantly frames the neck. For added warmth, the standing cowl can be worn up to keep your neck cozy during chilly days. Whether you're layering for a brisk walk or dressing up for a night out, the Kolga pullover is your perfect companion for any occasion.
Available Sizes: XS (S, M, L, XL) (2XL, 3XL, 4XL, 5XL). The pullover is showcased in size Small for reference.
Yarn Details: The Kolga pullover is crafted from Walk Collection’s Merino Sport yarn, which is composed of 100% Superwash Merino wool, ensuring it’s both soft and easy to care for. Each skein weighs 100 g and measures 325 m. The total yardage required for the pullover varies by size: 1432 (1528, 1624, 1720, 1816) (1912, 2056, 2200, 2344) m, while the cowl requires just 1 skein, approximately 195 m.
Gauge Information: Achieve perfect results with a gauge of 24 stitches and 32 rows in stockinette stitch using a 3.5 mm/US 4 needle. This should measure 10 cm square, after blocking, to ensure your pullover fits beautifully.
Important Notes: The Kolga pullover is meticulously crafted by working back and forth in separate pieces before being seamed together.
