Frosty
My own design, which is published in the book Not Your Mama's Knitting by Heather Dixon! My first design to be published in a book! I was inspired by the lovely yarn to make something very sheer and slightly sparky, like a delicate web, or a thin layer of frost - hence the name! It is actually 2 sweaters, which are variations of one pattern. There are 2 stripe patterns, and the first one has a huge neck and long flared sleeves, and the second has a deep v-neck and shorter sleeves. They are knitted in Rowan Kidsilk Haze and Kidsilk Night. I'm only showing the first one modelled here because the other one is in a larger size, and doesn't fit me too well! I'll maybe show it modelled after I give it to my mum.
