Early Spring – The Sweater
Paradise · Level: Beginner plus
Part of Paradise – my collection inspired by flowers and light, feminine looks. Early Spring – The Sweater is a soft sweater in fresh spring green tones, with puff sleeves in half brioche, a boat neck and a delicate lace pattern across the yoke, knitted in Fluff from HipKnitShop. Light and airy against the skin – just as good with jeans as with a light skirt.
Light. Feminine. Fresh as spring.
Styling
Wear Early Spring – The Sweater with jeans, linen trousers or a light skirt for a relaxed, feminine look. The fresh green tones work just as well with pale summer outfits as with classic denim favourites.

Cosy Cue
Tip from the designer: Mohair gets extra soft and airy after a light steaming. Let the garment rest flat after washing to keep the feminine fit and the airy texture.
