The Flettedisse is equal parts cowl and vest, which can be closed at the sides with Leather Snaps from Striksakken.
Flettedisse is worked from the bottom of the back piece, then worked with a braid construction up to the back of the shoulders, where the slanting is formed with German Short Rows. The shoulders are worked separately before the work is rejoined and the front piece is worked top down. Finally the long turtleneck is knitted onto the work. Flettedisse is a collab with @marie.louise.spiess.nielsen
