Sigga sweater
Welcome to your next favorite project: the Lopis Sweater! Designed for comfort and style, this sweater is worked entirely in the round, making it a great choice for knitters who enjoy seamless constructions. To get started, you'll need circular needles for the body, plus double-pointed needles (DPNs) for the sleeves. If you prefer using the Magic Loop technique, you can skip the DPNs entirely!

- Sleeve Length: 45 cm | 17 3/4 in (Adjustable)
