Facette
Facette is a sweater with an easy fit and delicate colourwork — and many facets, as the name suggests. The prominent features of the design are the sleeves and how the colourwork pattern is integrated into their shaping. The deep raglan starts at the middle of the shoulder for a wide neckline. The vertical accent lines are embroidered after the sweater is complete. The pattern has a few lovely, understated details, such as the i-cord finishing and the purl dots at the end of the colourwork motif.
