FAÏZA MEBAZAA
Un-Deux-Trois
“THIS DESIGN is a combination of geometry and playful maths, allowing an endless array of yarn pairings,” says designer Faïza Mebazaa. “The fit is very oversized with unusual proportions, but can be easily customized lengthwise.” Faïza has used a 4ply yarn from hand-dyer The Plucky Knitter, which has limited availability in the UK, so we have suggested two good alternatives with a wide choice of colours.
