Yarn package for the Isla Sweater by LeKnit.

The Isla Sweater is a classic, beautiful cable-knit sweater featuring a gorgeous Irish Aran pattern. This timeless sweater will be a lifelong favorite. 

The Isla Sweater is knitted with two strands held together using the beautiful combination of Sunday and Tynn Silk Mohair. The fine merino is wonderfully lightweight yet super soft and elastic, while the mohair strand makes the sweater incredibly cozy. The sweater is knitted from the bottom up in four separate pieces worked in rows, then sewn together at the end. This construction was chosen because the pattern is easier to knit in rows. 

The Isla Sweater is simply stunning!
