This sweater is a memory > of, and ode to, the air and everything > it encounters. The mohair and Spinni > Isager yarns are light, airy, and with > a gentle drape. It is delicate and > shimmery like air and the leaf pattern > in the sweater moves with the wind. > However, like air it is also robust > being warm enough for a spring walk > about town or a trip to the sea.” > -Claudia Q Designed for Eweknit by Claudia Q with a big thanks to Linda Brett for taking the design ideas and improving them during the process of knitting the initial sample. **PATTERN UPDATE & ERRATA** As of April 2020, we have added written chart instructions. Please make sure you are using version 2 (V2) of the pattern for this update. We have also changed the yarn recommendation from Isager Tvinni to Isager Spinni, as our original sample was knit in Spinni. Tvinni yarn will still produce excellent results for this design, but please make sure to check your gauge (as always).
