Cuckooflower

THIS SUMMERY jumper from Caroline Birkett has a wide neckline and cropped sleeves. Bands of a decorative, textured pattern called swag and bobble stitch are worked around the lower sleeves and body, in stripes of three different colours. The cuffs and neck are finished with a neat applied i-cord edging. The fabric feels smooth, soft and light, as it is knitted in Cascade’s Ultra Pima DK. This cotton yarn is available in a huge choice of shades, including pastels, neutrals and jewel-bright colours.
