Zooey, by Juniper Moon Farm
Last summer we had such a great response to Juniper Moon's yarn Zooey Aran we knew we had to try its skinnier DK sister, simply named "Zooey." This cool, breathable blend of cotton and linen joins other yarns from Juniper Moon that are great for warmer weather, like the cotton Neve and silky Findley. Drapey, breezy, and extra soft, its subtle thick-and-thin texture and natural, earthy color palette combine to make you think instantly of a day at the beach. Plus, it can go right in the washing machine and really softens up even more when it comes out. |
We've already had a chance to test drive our new colors of Zooey here at Argyle. Here is Kate's latest, which we have on display right now here in the shop: The Cancun Lace Boxy Top pattern by Erin Kate Archer, knitted out of the color "Taro." You can see how the linen content gives it such great stitch definition, and is a breezy modern and sophisticated option for so many tops and tanks. |
Let's check out some designs below from Juniper Moon's own design team, created specially for Zooey:
First up is the River Falls Cardigan: Femininity can be fabulous! A ribbon tie at the empire waist sets off a cascading lace bottom, echoed in the sleeves.
Next is the Rock Springs Wrap; the unusual combination of mesh lace with color blocking creates a soft, modern piece whose subtlety is stunning.

The Catalan is worked sideways with increases and decreases to form a shallow triangular shawl shape.
Lastly, the Argonic Dress is worked in the round from the bottom up, with princess darts to shape the waist. The front and back are separated and worked flat for the armholes, then the sleeves are worked seamlessly in the round.

When the nights are too hot to want the warm feel of wool across your lap or between your fingers, you don't have to give up on something you love. Give a cool, breathable linen and cotton blend like Zooey a chance.
