Playwright
Playwright is a romantic pullover with intricate colorwork patterns worked on the yoke and sleeves. This design was inspired by fancy Shakespearean era blouses. The cropped body length makes Playwright perfect for layering over flowy dresses and the wide puff sleeves give it an extra feminine, free-spirited feel. Knit up in Kelbourne Woolens Scout yarn for the body and Woolfolk Flette boucle yarn for the colorwork, there is a subtle difference in texture adding to the whimsy of the design.
