Neve is a stunning sweater designed for us by Orlane - Tete Beche and it's all about tiny textures that are aimed to enhance the bounce and roundness of A Pure and Simple Wool.
We've always loved Orlane's style but this time she managed to capture our yarn character so nicely that we're amazed.
The Sweater has a simple topdown construction, with short rows shaping the perfect drape and charted instructions for the textured yoke and the borders.
It has a comfortable fit, with a slightly cropped length and plenty of ease at bust and body.
Orlane's sample is knitted in Morfeo, while ours is worked in Pino, a very different effect in rendering!
