Midge

Order the book at Laine stockists worldwide. *Midge evokes a sense of sentimentality that carries the warmth of cherished memories from times past. It features an all-over colorwork design that is extremely meditative to knit. The end result is a sweater with a contemporary yet nostalgic feel.* Midge is worked from the bottom up, in the round, seamlessly. The body and sleeves are worked piece by piece and then joined together at the underarm. The yoke is then shaped with raglan decreases, short rows are worked at the back of neck and finished with a ribbed collar.
