Super sweaters with Lily Kate

Knitwear designer Lily Kate France has teamed up with Fyberspates to develop her own yarn range, called Lily Kate Makes - Axis. It’s a worsted-weight yarn, spun from 90% non-superwash fine merino wool with 10% undyed suri alpaca for a heathered effect.

Lily Kate has developed this yarn with sweaters in mind, and it is designed to offer good structure and drape, and a cosy fabric with well defined stitches. The 12 bright shades will work well together in colourwork projects, and each 50g offers 100m.

Lily Kate has also created an e-book of five chic women’s garments and accessory patterns using Axis, which is available to buy on Ravelry.com for £27. www.fyberspates.com/retailers
