Lamina by Jennifer Brou
Lamina was designed using our own Cheviot Marsh 4ply by Jennifer Brou for issue 5 of Making Stories Magazine.
“Nature is a constant source of inspiration and a perpetual reminder of our constantly changing world.The inspiration for this sweater comes from the dynamic and complex system of veins found in leaves. These are interpreted through a decorative motif of bold vertical lines, intricate connections, and overlapping ovate leaf blades.” – Jennifer Brou
Lamina is knit seamlessly from the top down. A broken rib is used for the ribbing at neckline, hem, and sleeve cuffs. Short rows are worked to slightly raise the back of the neckline. The stranded colourwork yoke is worked in the round with increases incorporated into the colourwork chart. The sleeve stitches are placed on holders, then the body is worked in stockinette, in the round, straight to the hem. Once the body is complete, the sleeve stitches are worked in stockinette to the cuff.
