Catalina Ski Sweater by Flipsville

February 2, 2017 ~ madgeface

I stumbled across this beauty and am now obsessed. There is but one picture of it that I could find on the interwebs (even using tineye.com) and that’s from a broken Pinterest link. A cursory search of the other keywords hasn’t yielded any useful information about Catalina (a style? a regional style?) or Flipsville (except that they were a UK commercial sweater maker). But this sweater is gorgeous! catalinaskisweater

  I want to start charting it now!!! But I’ll wait; I need to finish my current finely knit project (a Bohus cardi) and take a rest from 2.5mm needles before I think about something so fine.

That is a super garment. Pair of ski pants and some huge sunglasses and ready for a hot chocolate at the top of the ski run!!

  And a tasteful beehive or maybe a chignon. (I’m growing my hair out and can finally consider these longer hair style possibilities.)
