Dale
The softness of Bouclé makes me feel as if I'm floating on clouds.
I decided to pair it with Sunday Morning DK from Sonder Yarn Co.
The two together are a match made in heaven!
This sweater is named after my cousin Dale who had the softest and warmest of souls.
The sweater is knit in one-piece and worked from the top down seamlessly with a raglan construction.
The 'clouds' are added with stranded colour work.
You can supplement the bouclé with a suri alpaca held double for a similar effect.
Equally, the Sunday Morning DK can be replaced with Julie's Nutured DK.
Recommended ease: 4 - 5” / (10 - 12 cm) of positive ease.
Model shown is wearing a size 3 with chest measuring 21”, age: 3 1/2 years.
