FW2005-10 Boyfriend Sweater
WEB EXCLUSIVE

This must be a 'boyfriend sweater' in shape only, since few boyfriends we know wear fluffy nylon blends (though Walt Disney was photographed in the 30's wearing a handsome brushed mohair vest). It's the shape and scale that matter here. This is a tunic-length, seductively V-necked sweater with set-in sleeves and no other shaping. The customary gorgeous JCA Crafts detail is almost all in the full-fashioning this time; all decreases are worked well in from the edges. And there's a wee extra bit of ribbing to finish the neck. Otherwise, no other secret features. All the glory's visible up front. Original yarn was 51% wool, 49% nylon, 53 yards/48.5 metres to 50g.
