Another pattern that has been released earlier this year is Eah, knitted in the divine hand dyed Walk Collection Merino Sport yarn held together with the Kid Mohair Lace. The fitted hoodie with a central cable was test knitted in my Ravelry group and the test knitters helped make a second version of the hood to fit closer around the head, see theDingBat’s photos. Hence you have an option to make a loose or tight fitting hood. Eah is worn by gorgeous Model Olivia Lindtein, with makeup & hair styling by Sissel Fylling and jewellery by Kaja Gjedebo Design, photographed by Eivind Røhne at Mortensrud Church back in November 2020. Both the English and the Norwegian pattern is available on Ravelry and on LoveCrafts.
An acronym for each way is this casually fitted cabled hoodie adorned by a herringbone cable on the front, the back and the sleeves. Eah ends in a hood with the cable at the back and an I-cord edge. The pullover is knitted in the divine hand dyed Walk Collection Merino Sport yarn held together with the Kid Mohair Lace, in pieces and seamed for the ultimate fit.
