The Acanthus Yoke pullover, designed by Louise Robert, is a stunning piece that beautifully blends artistry and comfort. Crafted using multiple colors from our Highland yarns collection, this pullover showcases intricate colorwork that captures the eye and warms the heart.

Since antiquity, the acanthus leaf motif has been widely used in the fine arts and architecture. These distinctive leaves have been stylized throughout the ages as decorative elements in various artistic movements. The elegant and flowing shape of the acanthus leaf adds a sense of natural beauty and classic elegance to works of art.

Today, I present to you my version of this iconic leaf on a "yoke" style model knitted with the beautiful and sumptuous Highland wool. - Louise Robert ♡
