Yarn package for the Sleeping Beauty Sweater by Elenor Mortensen.

The delicate pattern of this breathtakingly beautiful sweater extends across the entire garment. Our yarn packages contain the background color, a color for the leaves, and a flower color.

You knit your Sleeping Beauty Sweater seamlessly from the top down in the round with the beautiful Balayage by Pascuali. This fine yarn has a lovely feel and is incredibly soft. Its blend of alpaca and merino is wonderfully luxurious and is especially well suited to colorwork.

Balayage does not have a color gradient, but rather a very subtle melange effect. The contrast color for the flowers is sufficient for one row of flowers.
