In the northern hemisphere, there’s still just about one pullover’s worth of cold weather left in this season. If you’re in the southern hemisphere, lucky you! You’ve got months of cold (or cool) weather knitting ahead! Either way, I hope you’ll consider my newest pattern, Misty Morning.
Misty Morning
This time of year is full of cool, grey mornings that really call for an extra bit of cozy. What better way to get your “cozy fix” than cashmere? The recommended cashmere blend is knit at a loose gauge for a bit of drape and elegance in an otherwise simple raglan pullover. Combined with the extra length in the torso and sleeves, this sweater is as comfortable as pajamas, but a lot more stylish!
The dramatic collar, which can be worn multiple ways, also adds a bit of flair. The moodiness of mornings this time of year just sort of demands some flair, doesn’t it? It also keeps the mostly stockinette sweater from being an absolute bore for more advanced knitters (although honestly, cashmere kind of does that all on its own)!
So cozy on up to your next Misty Morning and make the most out of the season while you still can!

Love it. I so love this neck line – I already have a sleeveless jumper with it and I totally love it.

It’s one of my favorites too. I love wide necklines.

That view of the back is definitely the cover shot for this piece. Lovely.

This is a really lovely design, I particularly like the extra long sleeves – perfect for keeping cosy as the seasons transition.

It’s so beautiful! I love how the drape around the neck looks on the back. So elegant.

It’s definitely one of my favorite ways to wear it.
