Description
King Cole Opium
Two Boleros, one has subtle stripes added with two rows of Bamboo Cotton Dk and makes for a thicker, warmer garment. Using a stronger contrast would produce a very interesting result.... You could give this method a try on the Opium sweaters to add extra bulk, but remember to allow for the added rows or you will have a dress! The sleeves are incorporated into the main body of knitting.
Knitted in King Cole Opium, a lumpy, bumpy yarn that comes out as lace, combined with Bamboo Cotton Dk, a smooth, silky yarn that is soft to the touch. Both come in 100g balls.
Other helpful requirements other than yarn are 4 mm & 6 mm / UK 8 & U K 4
