Knitter's Review
August 5, 2004
|
 Jo Sharp has been one of my favorite knitwear designers since she first emerged on the scene over 10 years ago.
Her yarns have been scarce for the past few months, but there's a good reason: She was busy changing U.S. distributors, producing a new pattern collection, and restoring her self-named DK collection to its former glory with over 58 shades.
She has also developed a feather-light brushed mohair called Rare Comfort Kid Mohair, which I tested on the needles this week.
