BRONAGH MISKELLY’S love of vintage style is reflected in this lightweight jumper, knitted in Erika Knight’s lovely Wool Local yarn. The design has short sleeves, and features the traditional print o’ the wave lace stitch pattern. This is paired with garter stitch on the upper body and sleeves.

This short-sleeved, V-neck jumper combines garter stitch with the Shetland print o’ the wave pattern
