Quince
Quince is a top-down sweater inspired by flowers. It reflects Irene Lin’s design style by blending classic elements with modern twists and prioritising both elegance and comfort. The pattern features a combination of lace and twisted ribbing. Its uniqueness lies in the seamless transition between the delicate lace section and the cosy textures. The pattern also plays with the yarns: silk mohair alone for the yoke, with a strand of Merino added for the rest of the sweater.
