JEWELS is available through Making Stories webshop and selected stockists.

Description

Handfuls of gemstones, scattered on a piece of fabric, forming symmetric, yet beautifully organic patterns, designed to make you shine. The Topaz sweater is an exercise in stunning stranded colourwork, allowing you to play and combine colours until the pullover feels truly yours. Designed for Tukuwool, the color selection shown here - deep, dark blue with heathered dusky pink and citrusy notes - can be worn just as well with a pair of jeans and winter boots as with a beautiful full-length skirt.
