The second design in our H+W x Friends series, Aisling, by Friend of the Flock Jill Thompson Beach, is an ethereal top down pullover made in our springy + light Weld held together with The Farmer’s Daughter Fibers Mighty Mo!, resulting in a covetable cloud-like sweater for everyday wear. The gently undulating cables in the circular yoke grow steadily and melt into easy stockinette stitch that naturally floats away from the body. Dress this sweater up or wear it with your favorite jeans — either way this design is happy to bring you cozy, elegant softness everyday.


A note: Ailsing is available as a digital download and a yarn+pattern bundle here at H+W.com, but 100% of pattern sales revenue goes directly to the designer, just as if you bought the pattern directly from their website or on Ravelry. We think this way, everybody wins: you get an easier, more straightforward experience as a consumer, our indie designer friends get to realize the maximum revenue from their work, and you get another great way to access new designs in our yarn outside of our pattern collections.
