This sweater was designed out of necessity - I wanted a comfy sweater shirt to take away on a summer holiday something I could throw on in the evening (twilight) or early morning (dew). Unfortunately, the only ones I owned although beautifully worn in giving you that lovely comfortable drape that feels great but so worn in I’d never wear it in public. The Twilight Dew pullover has the comfort of your old sweatshirt but the polished look of a hand knit sweater. And best of all, it is a total stash buster project.

This sweater gives you the opportunity to play with your stash,
grab the odds and ends and find your theme. In the blue version, the BG Garn’s Tussah Tweed created the colour palette as the tweedy specs gave me colours for the cotton and linen colours. For the pink version, I had odd balls of orange and pink, and my Espace Tricot (ET) project bag gave me the inspiration to use an oatmeal linen (left over from my ET ombre tank) to create truly ET inspired sweater. And the grey version, allowed me to use a sparkle dk that I loved but only had two balls and could never find a use for it.

This pullover is knit in a loose gauge allowing it to drape beautifully.

JL podcast inspired me to stash dive/Sally Melville inspired me to rethink how I organized my stash - colours not weight.

This would be the perfect project to play in your local yarn shops bargain basket and/or play with mixing luxury yarns with cottons and bamboos.
