Filigree (lat. filum: thread and granum: grain) – a sweater knitted top down with both stranded colourwork and bobbles in the yoke. The pattern in the yoke reminds me of a piece of filigree jewelry; an intricate metalwork of gold or silver, often made with small beads. This sweater is knit in worsted weight yarn; Svensk Ull (“Swedish Wool”) from Järbo Garn, which gives both warmth and comfort.
