Angostura

This design began on my trip last March to the Edinburgh Yarn Festival, so it’s fitting that it gets released this week, one year later.

Angostura bitters add a bit of interest to the simplest of cocktails, as the cables and shoulders do here on a classic pullover. Modern shaping, interesting construction, and an intricate (but easier than you think!) back panel make this sweater anything but ordinary.

Knit seamlessly from the bottom up with saddle shoulder construction and a strap across the back, this is a loosely shaped pullover with ease at the hips and A-line shaping in the body. The shaping and saddle shoulder construction ensures a nice fit through the shoulders, and adds beautiful lines to the sweater.

The sample was made with Blacker Yarns British Classic DK. A suggested substitute yarn is shown below.
