A melody of spring, dances like primrose petals on the breeze. A pullover that whispers of renewal, with stitches blooming in rococo elegance, celebrating nature’s rebirth
The sweater is knit using a fingering weight yarn and a mohair/silk blend. Here are a few suggestions
- Tosh Merino Light with Rowan Kidsilk Haze
- Hedgehog Skinny Singles with Hedgehog Kidsilk Lace
- Emma’s Practically Perfect Sock with Emma’s Suri Silk
I have knit a few of Joji’s patterns and I highly recommend them.

One Yarn Bomb from Freia Fibers has 786m/860 yards. That is enough yarn to make a large shawl.
This shawl is called Espe (pattern purchased on Ravelry). We used one Yarn Bomb in the colour Crabapple.
The shawl is worked in one piece, side-to-side, from a tiny six-stitch cast on, and it increases along one edge forming a practical, elongated triangle. A simple yarn over edging is worked along the two longer sides; this can be used for finishing since the blocking wires can be easily threaded through the yarn overs.
It’s time to put my iPad away and start knitting. I want to get the colourwork finished on my Calypso Worsted.
Love, love, love that pink sweater!
