  • Knit with the Biches & Bûches Le Gros Silk & Mohair, The Agnes Sweater is so soft, light and warm! We love it. Both romantic and classic - it was designed to wear over a dress or a skirt, but we love it over a pair of pants as well, and even tucked a little.

    The oversized and cropped sweater is worked top-down and in the round in stockinette stitch with raglan increases. The shape is boxy.

    • Yarn: 3  balls of Le Gros Mohair 50g by Biches and Buches

  • the little story: when starting to think about a woolen company, Astrid was in search of the yarn she wanted to knit her designs with and offer in the shop.

    She was looking for something rustic, that reminded her of a trip to Norway in 1995, discovering the pure wool from their Norwegian sheep, as well as her Scandinavian roots, a yarn that would make a sturdy sweater, to be worn through the years. and that rustic yarn would have to be blended with a soft feeling, that felt good knitting with, and of course, that felt good wearing.

    for the heartful moments of going slow
    putting thoughts and feelings into a single stitch
    being part of making one's wardrobe 
    and being part of something bigger 

    Biches & Bûches are a Scandinavian family settled in France.

    Their all-natural wool comes from a family-owned fibre mill in Scotland.

    Astrid designs garments of wool with a deep love for sweaters and cozy shawls. Biches and Buches describes their yarn as "A beautiful quality, presented in a way that feels like home."

    We are in love with their gorgeous yarns and designs. Seriously can't get enough of their wonderful, homey pinterest board.
