Holes

This will be another texture focused post.  I found this sweater on Target's website.  It's got a few interesting things going for it.  First, and most obvious are the large holes in the pattern.  I dig it.  If you zoom in on the website, you see that it's actually a cable pattern.  Second, it's got leather (okay, probably vinyl) cuffs.  I dig that, too.  Must figure out how to do this!  It also has Dolman sleeves. Dolman sleeves are fantastic for providing ample room for my annoyingly difficult to hide bust.

Of course, there's enough going on here that it makes it nearly impossible to find an exact match.  But, if you like the holey look, check these out!

First up is Aurelie by Jones and Vandermeer.  It's a cross between a cardigan and a shrug - not sure what to call it.  The back, in particular, has a similar hole pattern.

                   

My personal favorite is Rosemary by Penny Hill, which was in "Let's Knit It" Magazine 35, April 2012.  

For good measure, I'll throw in a third.  This isn't a sweater, but it's been pretty popular among knitters on the web.  This one is Summit by Mandie Harrington and is available for free!  It has a super cool wave to it!
