Angora linen sweater b.jpg
I had a lot of white angora yarn, but not enough for an entire sweater.  I finally decided to create this sweater using the 100% angora for the bodice and 100% linen for the off-the-shoulder sleeves.  To give it some more panache, I added the knitted bobble clusters of grapes made out of the linen with angora leaves and vines.  It looks fabulous with a long black skirt and a strand of pearls.

This sweater is my own design knit with 100% mercerized floss like cotton.  I bought a cone of this peacock green color from another one of my favorite Ebay sellers.  I doubled up the yarn for the correct yarn weight, and knit up this dressy summer tank top in about 2 weeks.  It took another week to add all of the square green beads along the edges.
