The new Fall 2010 Twist Collective was released today and I’m so excited to see the beautiful design Amy Herzog (aka stashknitrepeat) has created from our Merino Silk DK. “Twinflower” is a fingering/sport-weight pullover with classic styling and delicate details. And I’m so enamoured with the lace insets at the sleeve edges. I’m looking forward to seeing all the projects that come out of this lovely design.
