New pattern - ORLA sweater

It's pattern release day!

ORLA sweater is now available on Ravelry! 

 

 

ORLA is a top-down yoke sweater. Get inspired by the deliciously textured yoke and oh-so-cozy garter stitch.  Get captivated by elongated stitches, cables without the need for a cable needle and bobbles that are worked on the right side only. 

This design is worked seamlessly in the round and uses DK weight yarn for extra comfort.
The pattern offers 7 sizes, ranging from 85-145cm/34-58inches bust, including 10-15cm/ 4-6 inches of positive ease for a feel good fit.

My inspiration for this design is the seasonal change from summer to fall. The ornaments remind me of trees that have lost some of their leaves but are still standing strong with their crowns. The arrow-like textures are inspired by the wind that’s blowing away the leaves, and you can see them whirling around in the air.
But at the same time there is harmony and quiet, represented by the arrows showing in the same direction and earths peace in the striped section in the middle.

Since sweater patterns always take a lot of time and effort,  I'm naturally very attached to those designs of mine. So am I to Orla sweater. I'm so in love with the texture and how it's enveloped by the garter stitch. It fills my heart with pride and joy.

I hope you love the design as much as I do and will give the pattern a warm welcome! <3
