🍂 Why You’ll Love Grærup Chunky
Grærup Chunky by Camilla Vad is a warm, modern colorwork sweater designed for knitters who love bold stranded motifs and oversized cozy silhouettes. This bottom-up pullover features raglan sleeves and can be knit in either a minimalist 2-color version or a richly detailed 6-color version, giving makers flexibility in style and yarn choices.

Its chunky gauge means it works up faster than traditional colorwork sweaters, making it especially satisfying for knitters who want dramatic visual impact without an overly long project timeline.
