Catkin Sweater
Yarn
Amelia has put away her beautiful embroidered coat till next winter…and just this week, a sweet bonnet and matching bag arrived in the mail. So Amelia brought Rose the catkin yarn and a request for a matching sweater.
Raglan
Rose was game to try the new pattern – we love the shimmering colours in this mohair and silk Lang Luxe yarn!
Sweater and accessories
Amelia thinks Rose is a knitting genius!
Thanks very much to one of our Hitty friends who made the wonderful bonnet and purse, and to another who provided the pattern for the raglan cardigan…I think Rose is going to be busy knitting for some time to come!
Rose (and the Quimper human) are indeed knitting marvels! That sweater is gorgeous…so stylish and warm looking. Amelia is quite the fashion plate.
We were very pleased with the way it looks – soft and eminently pattable, like a real willow catkin! The bonnet and purse are absolutely gorgeous! Thank you so much!
Amelia is right: Rose is a knitting genius…guess the Quimper human taught her well!!!! And the bonnet and purse are superb too!!! Gosh….soooooooo much talent in the Hitty community!!!! Thank you for sharing.
We love to knit – I am glad to have passed along the fun to a Hitty who can keep her little hands busy, and keep the girls supplied with knits!
Delightful!!!
Thank you – we were so pleased with this yarn, and the sweater does look just right for these waning winter days!
Beautiful! A wearable catkin! What could be better!
Thank you! Such a comment from an expert knitter is very much appreciated!
Your Hitty friend has sent you very lovely gifts and you have set them off with that beautiful sweater. Thanks for the feast!
Aren’t that bonnet and purse just amazingly beautiful? Amelia is so happy to be the recipient, and really appreciated the sweater too, as it is a perfect colour match!
