This gorgeous sweater, with the yoke section in traditional gansey style stitchery, has timeless appeal.
I named it after the beautiful, tiny fishing cove of Lamorna in South West Cornwall.
The fit is straight with most of the patterning on the upper front and back. The sleeves and lower borders are in moss stitch, ending with a slightly raised ridge of reverse stocking stitch, which is also reflected on the yoke neckband.
I hope you’ll love this sweater as much I loved designing it.
