Lisa Richardson has curated this fabulous capsule collection of women’s designs using Rowan’s hugely popular Felted Tweed yarn. It contains six garment projects sized to fit busts of 28in-62in, and one lace scarf design.
Showcasing the gorgeous shade palette of Felted Tweed, Lisa has created three intricate colourwork designs, including ‘Bessie’, a drop-sleeve sweater with modern, graphic motifs, and ‘Ethel’, a V-neck cardigan with more classic Fair Isle patterning. ‘Bertha’, a tank top with a deep V neckline, is covered with multi-coloured diamonds. Two contrasting shades are used for the ‘Rose’ colourblock cardigan with patch pockets.
‘Maude’ is a belted wrap cardigan with in a simple ladder stitch texture, while ‘Pearl’ is a rollneck sweater knitted using two colours of Felted Tweed held together to create a thicker fabric with a marled effect.
