FIRST LIGHT is a circular yoke sweater that features stranded-colourwork and embroidery detail. FIRST LIGHT was inspired by dappled light falling through the pine trees in the forest on early summer mornings.

For an oversized fit choose a size 15-25 cm larger than your actual chest circumference, for a relaxed fit - 10-15 cm larger. For reference: the sample in the photos is in size 3 with 25 cm positive ease.
