KAFFE FASSETT has created an eye-catching pattern of ombre-effect diamonds on this jumper design. He has used the intarsia technique and worked with 16 shades of his favourite yarn, Rowan’s Felted Tweed. The jumper’s silhouette is kept simple, to allow the patterning to take centre stage; Kaffe’s design has a round neck, set-in sleeves and a neat fit.
