Description

Featured in the Laine Anniversary Issue, the Wild Rose slipover by Dee Hardwicke combines simple construction with beautiful embroidered details. The body is worked from the bottom up, mostly in the round, and the rose motif is added afterwards using Swiss darning.

The slipover is knitted with one strand of Laine x Novita 4ply.

This knitting kit includes the yarn required to knit the sweater in your chosen colourway, including the colour-block accents at the hem with contrasting colours. Simply select your size to receive the correct amount of yarn. Please refer to the Sizing tab for guidance on choosing your size.

The sample slipover is knitted in Woodland Bark for the hem, neck and armhole edgings, Sandy Shoreline for the background of the repeat chart and Frosted Mint for the contrast colour.

The Swiss darning uses small amounts of Pine Forest, Whispering Petal, Earthy Olive and Golden Amber. As only a little yarn is needed for the embroidery, this is also a perfect opportunity to use leftovers from your own stash. If you prefer to do so, simply remove yarns 4–7 from your bundle after adding it to your cart.

Please note: The knitting pattern is not included in this kit. It is available in the Laine Anniversary Issue, sold separately.

The Wild Rose motif is inspired by the way wild roses weave through the hedgerows surrounding Dee’s home, adding luminous splashes of colour to a background of foliage and intertwining stems.
The slipover is a lovely, fluid pattern to knit — just relax into the rhythm of the background repeat!
The body is worked from the bottom up, and most of the knitting is done in the round before shaping. The rose motif, worked in Swiss darning, is applied at the end.

“I love the endless versatility of Swiss darning and the way that such a simple stitch can add beautiful, painterly layers and decorative detail to knitting.
