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.

Women > Multi Wave Summer Tank - 2004 (2) > Mulit wave summer sweater 1 2004.jpg

This is such a fun and comfortable summer tank.  It is my own design, using single skeins of various Patons GRACE 100% mercerized cotton yarn (light turquoise, lime green, & royal blue along with one skein of Baroque Crochet cotton 100% super mercerized cotton yarn in green (2 strands).  I knit this on size 4 circular knitting needles.  Once it was completed  a simple crocheted edge finished the edges.  Hand stitched wave patterns and french knots were added for extra interest.
