Twisted back sweater with lace stitch pattern designed by @bykaterinadesigns for Premium Designers
One of my inspiration source for my designs is street fashion and it´s amazing that in our days you don´t have to be always in the street to get your inspiration. The internet is full of street fashion photos and ideas. Since I was just a child I was trying , and sometimes with great results, to recreate different garments by recycling some of my mom´s older (or not) clothes. Now i started to do it again and my biggest challenge as a designer is to recreate different fabrics using yarn. That´s why I present you the Sunlight Twisted design, a twisted back sweater crocheted with Katia SeaCell Cotton for Premium Designers.
- Sunlight Twisted crochet pattern available in sizes S, M, L, XL, XXL, XXXL, 4XL and 5XL.
Twisted back sweater
When I first saw a photo with a twisted back sweater, I immediately saved the photo and put it on my to crochet list. It took me a while to figure it out how to do it and I had to undo several times, but I end up with the Sunlight Twisted sweater, a pretty design and easy pattern. The skill level required to complete this project is intermediate. You have to know how to increase, decrease when working with a lace stitch pattern. But if you are ready to take out the best of you, even if you are a beginner, you can do it! And don´t get intimidated by the twisted back, there are just 2 panels twisted and then stitched together.
Katia SeaCell Cotton
When I had to choose the yarn, I knew it has to be a fine weight; because this is the weight I prefer to work with. I choose Katia SeaCell Cotton because I loved the concept “from sea to skin” and because I was curious about how this yarn will feel like. Choosing the colour was difficult, but I knew that it has to be a light colour. I made this Sunlight Twisted top with the spring and summer sunlight in my mind and this pastel yellow describes perfect what I was thinking about.
