Magnolia Bloom by Camilla Vad
We’re somewhat besotted with the latest sweater by Camilla Vad – Magnolia Bloom, and we can’t wait to cast on.
We’ve set up this page so you can select your yarn, if you’d like to knit one too.
Pattern available to buy from HERE(Ravelry link)
Camilla uses her own lambswool held double, along side a laceweight mohair also held double. We’ve done some swatching and found that one strand of our Cheviot Marsh lambswool DK held together with one strand of our Yeavering Bell mohair DK meets the gauge of the pattern and creates a lovely lofty fabric with a halo of mohair. Soft and gorgeous.
Please always swatch to check that you meet the gauge of the pattern, and adjust your needles if necessary.

Made with our Cheviot Marsh lambswool DK
100% Cheviot and Romney Marsh Lambs Wool.
Cheviot Marsh is a warm, buoyant yarn that only improves with washing and wearing. It is perfect for comforting everyday jerseys that wrap you in love whilst still looking looking smart. Its stitch definition is fabulous, think elaborate cables or colour work in a garment that will fast become a go to staple of your wardrobe, warm, snuggly and progressively softer.
Made with our Yeavering Bell DK
A soft and gleaming worsted spun yarn from our own Angora Goats and Wensleydale Sheep. Hand dyed on the farm in small batches of 10 skeins.
80% Whistlebare’s own Mohair, 20% Whistlebare’s own Wensleydale
