Y-oak Sweater

Introducing the exquisite Y-oak Sweater, a heartfelt homage to the majestic oak tree and the beautiful cycles of nature. Inspired by my deep admiration for oaks, which I truly discovered once I settled in Europe, this sweater reflects the essence of seasonal transitions. Each stitch embodies the journey from the warmth of Summer to the chill of Winter, symbolizing life's cyclical events—from birth to adulthood and from day to night. This passion for nature and change is intricately woven into the design of the Y-oak Sweater, making it a perfect addition to your knitting repertoire.
