The Kathmandu sweater by Linka Neumann

The Katmandu sweater is inspired by the hippie era of the 60s and 70s. Kathmandu was a popular destination for many hippies in so-called "hippie trails" at this time. The sweater is knitted in the round, from the bottom up.

You have the option of buying the pattern together with the yarn in a physical printed version, or you can download the pattern.
