Pink Sky · Arctic Blue Edition – The Sweater
Always In · Level: Beginner plus
Pink Sky · Arctic Blue Edition is the solid-colour sister edition of Pink Sky – knitted in deep blue Bella from Permin, without the colour block from the original. The lace pattern gets to stand alone in the even blue, and the sweater keeps the light, airy mohair quality and the classic raglan shape.
Blue. Airy. Timeless.
Styling
Wear Pink Sky · Arctic Blue Edition with jeans or a simple skirt for a calm everyday style. The light mohair quality means the sweater works well on its own, and just as well as a middle layer under a jacket when it is colder.

The story behind the design
Winter ice changes colour with the light – green-blue at dawn, deeper blue when dusk takes over. The colour of this yarn is taken from the last hour of light before dark.
The solid-colour yarn gives the lace pattern room to stand alone. No colour change draws the eye away from the texture – just the pattern, close together, the way it looked in the first drawing.
It became a sweater for anyone who wants one colour to carry the whole garment, instead of two sharing the attention.
Always In
Always In is CosyMonday's timeless collection with clean lines and classic silhouettes. The designs are made to be worn again and again – regardless of season, trend or occasion.
