The Night Blooms Sweater incorporates the same chart motif used for our Night Blooms Hat into a simple top-down pullover design. The use of two high-contrast colourways lends a dramatic, graphic quality to an otherwise minimalist garment. Although the line of the sweater falls straight from the underarms, generous ease through the body gives the illusion of a slightly A-line, swingy shape. While we opted for laceweight silk and mohair yarn (held double) for our colourwork (because we love a good ‘halo’!), another colour of the same DK weight yarn used for the main colour can be easily substituted.
