Rathbone Kit (Arranmore Light)

About Rathbone

Designer, Holli Yeoh, created this v-neck sweater, which has a flattering a-line shape and subtle texture on the sleeves and along the neck. It is worked from the bottom up in pieces and seamed. Knit in Arranmore Light, this sweater has a soft and luxurious feel that drapes well. This kit is also available in The Fibre Co. yarn, Acadia.

Kit contains:

• PDF of Rathbone knitting pattern by Holli Yeoh
• 4 [4: 5: 5: 5: 6: 6: 7: 7] hanks of The Fibre Co. Arranmore Light (80% Merino wool, 10% cashmere, 10% silk)
• Free Project Bag from The Fibre Co.

Introducing: Best of The Fibre Co.

We selected Skiddaw to be a part of the Best of The Fibre Co., a reimagined collection featuring seven designs chosen to represent The Fibre Co. at its best. Each design has been reknit in either a new colourway or a different yarn with an expanded size range for all garments. Rathbone was originally part of The Fibre Co.’s Fell Garth II series which is a collection of 18 pieces shot at our homestead, Fell Garth, in the stunning Lake District of Northern England. We invite you to join us in the Cumbrian Fells for some knitting pleasure from a host of talented designers.
