Angel in the Making
The Klee Collection
The Klee Collection is a gathering of knitting patterns close to my heart. Although I trained as an art historian, I rarely get a chance to see even a fraction of the amazing art on offer in London. A few years ago the Tate Modern held an exhibition of Paul Klee’s work, and it was like visiting an old friend. The inspiration to design my first collection came quickly, and I have named each of the designs after a painting by Klee.
Angel in the Making
Angel in the Making is a seamless, round-yoked sweater worked in fingering or 4-ply yarn from the bottom up. A contrast coloured band highlights the delicate lace in the yoke, and the body features flattering garter stitch details along the sides. The accessory partner to the this sweater is the Angel in the Making Shawl.
