The Lavenda Droplet Bolero is knitted in separate pieces which are then sewn together and was designed to be worn with the Lavenda Droplet Jumper. The two look equally great worn as separates and the bolero looks particularly fetching worn over a full-skirted 1950s dress.
Lavenda Droplet Bolero is knitted using Excelana North fingering weight a soft, fingering weight 100% British wool, spun for us in nearby Yorkshire and dyed in-house by Susan and her team. Shown here in shade Icelandic Moss.
Our model Julia is shown wearing the fourth size 92-97cm (36-38in).
The pattern includes instructions for twelve sizes to fit chest measurements between 71cm (28in) and 152cm (60in) and contains both clear written pattern directions, together with charted instructions for stitch placement detail plus a comprehensive schematic diagram and sizing chart.
6 (7, 8, 9, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16) skeins, shade Icelandic Moss
