Rowan Evolution

12 designs for women by Marie Wallin, Lisa Richardson and Grace Melville using Alpaca Cotton, Big Wool, Cocoon, Drift, Felted Tweed Chunky and Kidsilk Haze.

Over the last few seasons we have seen the growth in popularity and demand for sculptural and structured knitwear inspired by the catwalk collections of designers such as Mark Fast, Pringle and Top Shop.

Rowan's book Evolution is a reaction to this trend whilst utilising some interesting knit techniques such as pleating, short row shaping, and cast on/off effects. This contemporary collection of women's designs by the Rowan design team, embraces these new shapes and stitches, creating dramatic knits that are easy and desirable to wear. This is the essential knit collection for the serious handknitting fashionista.
