as promised, please meet SCARPETTA.
she is a 'skinny' sister version of scarpa [skinny in yarn only!]
using the lovely twisted neckline detail to again elegantly frame the face and decolletage, this is a perfect transeasonal piece. the elbow length sleeves lend practicality whilst grafting to the sides of the body provides a seamless aesthetic.
this is also knit side to side, from the left elbow (sleeves knit in the round) across the body in a single piece to the right elbow. incorporated i-cord edges the waist hems with small hems to trim the sleeves to complete the design.
and of course, please leave me a comment below if you would like to be in the running for a free copy of this knitwear pattern before friday, 5 november (or will reimburse any who have already purchased).
and comment no. 23 from melissa has won a copy of scarpa : thank you to all those who left comments, i love to hear your feedback.
