For me, one of the wonders of knitting is the intertwining of nature, function, and art. This magical connection between animal and human, between pragmatism and idealism delights me to no end. Side Eye Sweater was designed to celebrate the alchemy of fibre arts and the ingenuity of fibre production.

Side Eye Sweater is knit in beautiful undyed Stone Soup Yarn from Bare Naked Wools. A unique blend of 10 different natural fibres (including Rambouillet, Alpaca, Silk, and Bison), Stone Soup offers sharp stitch definition, gentle drape, and a lovely tweedy texture – the perfect blend of function and luxury.

Knit bottom up, Side Eye Sweater is steeked at the arms and neck, helping the stranded colourwork to fly off your needles. Short rows are added in the back for better fit and comfort. The sweater sleeves are then picked up and knit down to the cuff. Designed with 3-4 inches of positive ease, this unisex sweater is sure to flatter everybody.

Side Eye Sweater is also available in toddler and children’s sizes for those of you who can’t resist a matching knit!
