Imloth
Summer: Imloth - meaning flowering valley
An Elven Reckoning - a year of knits from the last homely house is a collection of twelve beautiful garments and accessories inspired by the stories of Elves that inhabit Middle-Earth from J.R.R. Tolkien’s books.
In this book designer Sarah Alderson will take you on a journey through the six seasons that make up an elven reckoning.
The twelve beautiful patterns feature a wide range of design elements, from cables to stranded colourwork, slipped stitch patterns to lace. Sarah has created a pattern for every person (and Elf!).
A dainty lace pattern adorns this summery camisole top making it lightweight and airy, ideal for hot summer days.
The lace pattern is a six row repeating pattern with colourful stripes and the camisole is finished with a pretty picot edging and buttons.
