It’s Flash Pattern Friday!
On the last Friday of the month, we take a beautiful paid pattern and set it free for a limited time through Ravelry. Today it’s Serafina, knitted in Fibra Natura Ravello (Ravelry link here).
Serafina was designed by Rachel Brockman as part of the Perennial Knits collection, showcasing five timeless patterns in Ravello. We love this design so much we put it on the cover!
And what’s not to love? There’s a delicate, lacy hem with a touch of stranded colorwork…
…bordering a simple stockinette body, with raglan sleeves and constrating edging. All together, Serafina is graceful, polished, and beautiful.
The gorgeous stitch definition and depth of color come from the yarn, Ravello. This 50% cotton/50% cashmere blend feels like a dream and works up smoothly and easily. This is one of my favorites from our Italian mill, because it is so versatile in warm weather, and because of the faint haze that the cashmere gives to the cotton. True luxury.
With its inclusive sizing and seamless construction, this pattern will appeal to a range of knitters. It certainly appeals to me. My queue continues to grow!
