Look of Linen by Marilyn Saitz Cohen
From book:
Here is a glimmer of spring in a viscose/cotton tape, wrapped with a fine strand of linen. The neckline is a flattering split scoop that rolls forward and the sleeves are three-quarter length. The style is slightly boxy, with an easy natural fit. Be sure to press the finished sweater with a steam iron (except around the neckline) fora soft, flat and professional looking finish.
Design tips - For those of you who like the look of linen, but not the feel of it, a blend with some linen in it would be a good solution. There’s a crispy texture to the finished sweater and, in this natural color, it looks as if it has a lot of linen in it. Beautiful colors to choose from include pale melon, blush, coral, light chartreuse, deep olive, black, and white.
