Leeni Hoimela

Hali - Sweater

Name: Hali - Sweater
Brand: Leeni Hoimela
Availability: InStock

Hali means a hug in Finnish, and the pullover is like a warm hug from a friend on a chilly day.

It’s a bit oversize so you can layer your clothes with a blouse and jeans and feel comfortable. The funnel neck gives the pullover a contemporary look even though the stitch pattern is quite timeless.

Can you see how the stitches are chained to each other – just like us?

The sweaters is worked top down seamlessly.
