Yarn Thoughts
Sample is knit in Green Mountain Spinnery Lana, a 2-ply fingering weight yarn spun in a lightweight wool fiber. (100% Fine Wool, 400yds/366m per 3.5oz/ 100g skein, shown in Bahia).

This sweater is simple enough to look fantastic in any number of yarns, and you can play with the density and feel of your fabric by using either a fingering, a DK or a sport weight yarn knit to the pattern gauge. You could even combine a fingering with a suri or mohair strand for a soft halo!.

Your yarn could be a heather like mine - or a solid or a subtly variegated colorway. I also think this would also look fantastic with some speckle or a halo. I’d just stay away from anything too variegated, so the detail stands out.
