Harlequin Tam o'Shanter
This is a luxury sweater of generous size with a crossover collar, worked in "fairisle" style motifs inspired by the chequered costume of Harlequin, the comic mischievious character of the Italian Commedi dell'arte - a multi-coloured patchwork of colour.
The design mirrors the playfulness of Harlequin, who traditionally carried a "slapstick", a magic wand that could change the scenery of the play.
Speaking in regional dialect, skipping and turning cartwheels he brought playfulness and joy – so have fun!
Two colours are knitted into each row, the colours alternately carried behind the work to create a soft and lightweight double-layer fabric which has excellent insulation qualities.
100% pure Shetland wool.
This is a one-of-a-kind item, made by me personally.
