This is the second knit in the Bows & Braids series. After the success and love from the vest I knew a jumper was coming! It’s a chunky cable knit v neck sweater with varsity inspired contrast striped ribbing. To give it a cute feminine vibe the central cable pattern are hearts, along with an adorable contrast functional tie on either side.

Construction Overview: Bottom up, worked flat

What we are all about at Anxious Girl Knits

Playfulness

Basic is boring. I’m making knitwear for the fashion girlies who want a piece that will make them stand out and feel amazing without damaging the planet.

Colourful

I’m done with the neutrals and achromatic colours I see everyone wearing. Everything I do I want to brighten this world with a feminine touch of frills, bows and pretty pastels. Winters are grey enough, our knitwear shouldn’t be.

Craftsmanship

AGK is all about inspiring and embracing the wonders our hands and minds can create. Everything is slowly made and knitted by hand to order. Creating thoughtful, luxury knitwear that will last and be loved.

Sustainability

Everything we buy has some impact on the planet. I create knitwear whilst trying to minimise the environmental impact by sourcing wool from RWS certified farms and using natural/recycled or biodegradable fibres.

Honesty & Community

Knitting can have such a positive effect on your mental health. Here we share wins, struggles, and support each other so no one feels alone. The internet can feel fake - I promise to be real about my highs, lows, and everything in between.
