Karuna

Patterns / Sweaters

The perfect throw-over sweater for summer—Karuna is crocheted in organic linen, using motif squares that are joined together as they are being created. The pattern includes both written and charted instructions for each motif. Edging is worked around the body and sleeves, with a picot edge, for an elegant touch. All crochet terms are American.
