Jeanne's Looking Glass Sweater

Description

Jeanne's knitting skills never cease to amaze me! She just completed this absolutely gorgeous Looking Glass Sweater, designed by Kathryn Ashley-Wright and, boy, do I want to knit one for myself now!! The top is adorned with four rows of little windows that show off Noro's Silk Garden beautifully and give it a really neat 3D effect. Jeanne used one of her stash yarns for the body, Rowan's Cashsoft Aran but recommends Debbie Bliss' Cashmerino Aran as a suitable substitute. This project is the perfect way to show off fun variegated yarns like Noro or Lorna's Laces against a solid backdrop. Jeanne rocks!
