Oasis
Color Work Cardigan
– Felted Tweed and Sterk
Oasis is a part of a series of designs with
inspiration by Dutch porcelain. I have been using a
mixture of Sterk – a single Color yarn from Du
Store Alpakka and Felted Tweed from Rowan.
Felted Tweed is discreet mélange and gives a fine
contrast to the single colored yarn. Take a look at
the sweaters Delft and Haga Sofie, who are also
parts of the serie.
