We now offer handy kits of this pattern to celebrate our Mill Open Weekend Mineralogy Collection. All kits include enough yarn to make this sweater, a limited edition button badge and a fab project bag to keep it all safe. Happy knitting! We do not stock the pattern ourselves, but you can buy it from Sarah Solomon, here.
As part of our annual Mill Open Weekend shenanigans, we always create a limited-edition mini collection of yarn and tops to help celebrate in style. This year, we’ve been even more excited than usual, as you lovely folks have been the ones to create it, from the fibre blend to the colours and shade names.
We have knit up some samples using our Mineralogy Collection, including the Saltings Sweater, which we absolutely adore.
Looking for some ‘wow’ factor? Then this is the sweater kit for you. The Saltings Sweater, knit up here in our gloriously rich, pinky ‘Carnelian’ shade, is an absolute beauty. Our Mineralogy fibre blend lends itself perfectly to showing off these stunning cables and textures.
