The name of this pattern was inspired by the beautiful yarn Cotton Merino Glam by Katia Concept, with a subtle sparkle to it. Apart from that, it is a saying that evokes hope and optimism. Hope and optimism are what we are all looking for in these trying times. It is a seamless top-down sweater with a scalloped neckline and an intricate lace pattern on the yoke while the rest is made in simple stockinette. The range of ease across all the sizes is 16-18 cm /6.5-7.25”. The picture shows size 3 with 18 cm/7.25” of positive ease. YARN:
