Louisa

This is Louisa, my new design for Yarn Forward issue 12 which is currently arriving with subscribers.

It's knitted in Lang Pearl which is a mohair/acrylic blend and gorgeous to knit with. The sweater had a big cable up the front which continues in smaller cables up each side of the deep v-neck and around the armholes.

I orginally planned this as a vest but added sleeves. But it would work perfectly as a vest. Work as for sweater, just leave out the sleeves.

Wow what a gorgeous jumper, well done you for designing it, I remember you talking about it on the way to Bovey and here it is all done :))

Oh it's beautiful! Too bad I don't have a subscription, it's too expensive for me. But conrats!

Anni it is just lovely. I was admiring it in Yarn Forward yesterday and lamenting the fact that I have just destashed some 20 balls of cashmerino aran.

C'est la vie!

It's a beautiful sweater! I'll see if they have the magazine around here- am off to Ă…lesund tomorrow, and Narvesen is pretty big there, so they might have it.
