Foxglove jumper is timeless and easy to wear. Worked from hem to shoulder seam – using the mattress seam technique to make an invisible join – foxglove motifs cover the majority of the jumper plus the simple stocking stitch ‘yoke’ and sleeves makes this a interesting yet simply structured garment to knit. The sleeves are worked from cuff to underarm and sewn into armhole openings.

One often needs a little something light and elegant but warm to swathe yourself in; for countryside walks or dashing into town for a quick peruse around the shops, or beach walks, or snuggling up on the sofa with your favourite book.
