Raiden
Introducing the Raiden Pullover, a beautifully designed knitting pattern inspired by the Japanese word for lightning. This stunning V-neck A-line pullover showcases striking cable designs at the center, complemented by a vibrant contrast color neck fill. The expertly crafted cables are divided elegantly for the V-neck and continue seamlessly across the shoulders, forming a unique neckband that enhances its overall aesthetic. The back and sleeves of the Raiden Pullover are meticulously knitted in stockinette stitch, allowing the exquisite cable work to truly shine and elevate the design.
Raiden is knit in individual pieces for the perfect fit, using Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk's airy Norwegian combed wool yarn, Ask. This high-quality yarn ensures comfort and durability in wear, making it an ideal choice for your next cozy project.
