What's On Our Needles

Pattern: Aurea by Esti Juango

Yarn: Silk Garden by Noro


This stunning yoke sweater is worked in the round from the top down. The stranded leaf motif is knit in the autumnal colorations of SILK GARDEN #341 Yokosuka, and it stands out beautifully against the main color worked in the neutral shades of #269 Komaki. Our friend, Steven, is knitting this beautiful colorwork sweater for his wife Cathy.

Resembling its namesake soft porous limestone, Tufa is a light yet warm fiber mix of dense rhythmic textures with airy spaces in between.


Tufa is knit with two strands of Urth yarn held together - one strand of 16 fingering (100% merino) and one strand of Bonmoher (60% Mohair

40% Silk).
