So thrilled to see my new design featured in the Issue 136 of Knit Now Magazine :)
Otmara’s dolman sleeve shaping and all-over textured pattern transform a preppy pullover into a chic modern design that’s ready for both the office and the weekend. It is worked from the bottom up in two pieces and seamed. Sts are picked up at sleeve edges for the cuffs, which are worked in double ribbing. The turtleneck is also worked in double ribbing.
The sweater was knitted with Rowan
Cashmere Haze yarn.

Relaxed, comfortable and casual - this is what oversized clothing feels like. The long-running trend from the 80s was largely influenced by none other than the style icon Coco Chanel. She campaigned for more femininity - she wanted to create fashion for women who are elegant, self-confident but also flexible.
Laguna was inspired by this oversized clothing trend
and is designed with a very loose, relaxed fit, with a casual, cool and
incredibly wearable feeling. The sweater was knitted with King Cole merino blend 4ply yarn.
If you are tempted by colorwork patterns, like the gorgeous bouquet of roses by Dolce & & Gabbana, but hesitate to try, you can embroider the pattern on the knitted piece with the duplicate stitch. Or you can knit part of the pattern and embroider the rest.
In my new design "Field of daisies", I knitted the white parts of the daisies and embroidered the cyellow parts with the duplicate stitch. You can find the pattern for the shawl in the Feb/21 Issue of "I Like knitting" magazine, or here: www.ilikeknitting.com
Duplicate stitch is a knitting technique that allows you to cover a stockinette stitch while making it look like the new stitches are part of the knitting. It's often used for adding details and colorwork patterns to a project.
