New Test Call

Our Floral round yoke collection's third pattern is complete and ready for testing. Meet the Windflower Sweater! This fingering-weight project showcases a beautiful floral motif in the yoke that extends just beyond the sleeve separation. While incorporating multiple contrasting colours, the design never utilizes more than two yarns in a single round. It also presents the opportunity to explore the ladderback jacquard technique for managing longer floats.

For those seeking a challenge, delve into the details of the design and registration process on our blog. We anticipate high demand, so we will open the registration form starting at 3 PM GMT on the 6th of March, and it will stay open until the test group reaches capacity.
