My Linwood sweater design is the cover garment for this month's
Knitter Magazine! I love everything about this magazine issue, from the stunning model looking amazing in my sweater design, to the fabulous photography showing all the patterns at their very best. Having my design published alongside patterns by talented designers such as
Jeanette Sloane,
Carol Meldrum and Mary Henderson to name only a few, makes me feel so proud!

My Linwood sweater has a linked leaf stitch pattern that is similar to a rib-based design in the way that the curving cable lines run parallel to each other. A little leaf motif is tucked into the bend of each of the cable lines. The whole cable pattern panel is placed centrally on the sweater. However there is an asymmetric look around the neckline, created as the cables move left then right alongside each other. The beautiful yarn is
West Yorkshire Spinners Illustrious DK in the delicate shade of seaglass.
As well as interesting reviews and news, there is a delightful article about yarn shop
Ida's House, located in Caterham on the Hill. Owner Jayne has created a community based shop with a lovely atmosphere. Also great to see Fiona Morris's Crowood Press book "
Knitting with Beads" in the New Books list on p15! You can read more about this excellent issue over on the
Yarn Loop website.
