Affogato Sweater (english)

English knitting pattern

Affogato Sweater is worked top down in stockinette stitch with slits at the body and wide twisted ribbing. Inspired by the Italian dessert «affogato», a combination of gelato and espresso, the Affogato Sweater captivates with its colour mélange that is created by mixing Børstet Alpakka with soft alpaca yarn. A very exciting and tasteful expression. Get ready for dessert.
