SIÅN BROWN
Rhodri
FOR MEN who like to wear a bit of colour, this mosaic-patterned sweater by Siân Brown should appeal! Siân has used two different slip stitch patterns in shades of teal and silver on the body and sleeves, to create an interesting fabric. The sweater is knitted in Debbie Bliss’s Baby Cashmerino yarn, which is a super-soft wool-cashmere blend that can be machine-washed at 30°C, and comes in a choice of 49 shades.
