Proserpine

THIS LOOSE FITTING garment could be layered with a blouse or T-shirt, or worn with a camisole. It has a beautiful drape thanks to the sumptuous alpaca, silk and linen yarn from indie dyer Cat and Sparrow, while the lace and garter stitch pattern creates a rippled stripe effect. The shoulders are joined with a three-needle cast-off, and the sleeves are picked up and knitted down from the armhole. An i-cord finish to the neck creates an easy fit.
