BERG
A cabled pullover with mock turtleneck featuring Woolfolk’s LUFT yarn. Berg is worked circularly from the bottom hem and sleeve cuffs to underarms, then divided and worked flat. The classic cable pattern, which is worked on the front and back, makes a playful statement centered on minimal stockinette fabric.

GUS
An open-front cardigan featuring Woolfolk’s LUFT yarn. Gus is worked from the bottom up in pieces with beautiful details such as loose inset pockets and full-fashioned back shoulder shaping.

WOOLFOLK LUFT
LUFT is an Aran weight yarn that is a combination of Ultimate Merino® in an organic cotton cage (GOTS certified). The fabric it creates is light, airy, and dreamy soft but is also super sturdy. Depending on which color you choose, the contrast between the cotton and the merino is either subtle, bold, or somewhere in the middle. Colors shown in photo above are: L6 (black), L5 (navy), L4 (ochre), L3 (light blue), L2 (medium gray) and L1 (light gray).
55% Ovis 21 Ultimate Merino, 45% Organic Pima Cotton
