FLOATY FLUFF
Knitting is derived from the word ‘knot’ and is the process of using two of more needles to create a fabric made of a series of loops. Loops and loops and more loops combine to make something wearable. Here is Trellis Jumper.

Floaty Fluff an easy to knit fluffy jacket. Knitted in Fluffy B lace yarn and Aran weight cotton. An easy to wear and quick knit. There is a possibility to mix it up; knit in different colours, different yarns types, go wild to create a rainbow of colours and texture. Or keep it simple as the sample.

Floaty Fluff is knitted from the bottom up, start with a lace border hem, moving onto the Arran yarn hole-motif, work to where you split for sleeve opening, work right and left sides and back, join with a three needle cast-off or graft shoulders together. Pick-up stitches to create sleeves, knitted in the round (to create garter st you will need to work one row knit and one row purl).
