Well this one dates back a few years. And yes, I still wear it! Pattern is Backshore by . The linen I used for this sweater is actually a heavier DK weight than the sport weight I now sell. Both shades were hand-dyed.

Another made-up linen top, using all my favourite seaside shades. Hardly any shaping, similar to the top in my last post. The drape is fantastic. Linen is best for garments with lots of drape.

One of the first tops I made out of 100% sport weight linen (hand-dyed). This was a completely made-up pattern knitted flat and sewn together. The cable is very discreet because there is no purl stitch either side to separate it from the stocking stitch.

Revisiting some of the tops I have made out of sport weight linen. This one is Simplicitee, my own pattern available on Ravelry and my website. One of the advantages of linen is its durability. My linen tops last forever, and they don't pill. Plus they get softer with wear and they are machine-washable.
