Featured Design: Designed by Mari Lynn Patrick, and knit in elann.com Peruvian Highland Chunky, this uniquely constructed jacket is from Vogue Knitting Magazine - Winter 2008/09. It features a crocheted medallion at the centre back, from which stitches are picked up onto double point needles and then knit outward in a ribbed stitch pattern, creating a dramatic focal point. Set in raglan sleeves are finished in a broken rib which repeats on the left and right fronts for additional visual interest. The generous, doubled shawl collar nestles against the neck for warmth and flattering style. In size S/M (finished bust 38"; finished length 23"), it uses 1392 yards of chunky weight (16 st/4") yarn - works out to 19 balls of elann.com Peruvian Highland Chunky. Also see a Cabled Pullover, knit in elann.com Peruvian Highland Chunky by Elaine Weyuker in Interweave Knits – Winter 2005, as well as a Chunky Weight Wrap Cardigan, also knit in elann.com Peruvian Highland Chunky by Elaine Weyuker in Vogue Knitting Magazine Holiday 2006, a two-tone turtleneck, knit in elann.com Peruvian Highland Chunky by Bri Stanback in Vogue Knitting Magazine – Fall 2006, as well as our free pattern for a Chunky Highland Wool Wrap, designed by Eileen Casey.
