Who says handknits are only for cold weather? The Yarnistas are a big fan of multi-season sweaters – particularly here in the Mid Atlantic region.
We’ve knitted up this spring sweater as a sample here at the shop. The HeatWaveTee is the perfect addition to your handmade wardrobe. The dramatic lace yoke is as practical as it is beautiful – allowing for a light, breathable multi-season fabric. This piece can take you from office to dinner to weekend out on the waterfront. Wear it with jeans or layer it over your favorite dress. Our shop sample is made up in Knitting for Olive Merino Cotton, the perfect lightweight fingering blend for a layering piece that will wear well season after season.
