Somerville

This feminine, loose-fitting design was inspired by the vintage fashions of the 1920s, and particularly by the Bloomsbury Group of writers, artists and intellectuals. Its smock-style shape is decorated with a moss stitch diamond pattern, a deep open neck and collar, and split side hems. The project is knitted in Erika Knight's British Blue 100, which is a lustrous Bluefaced Leicester wool yarn.

August 2020 - the pattern has now been updated to include tie lacing at the front neck.
