| With autumn approaching Jacquelyn Landry decided to to knit a sweater that was simple and luxurious, but with an earthy feel. Her inspiration came one night as she came across a classic 1930's version of Robin Hood. Errol Flynn plays the dashing hero who with his band of Merry Men robs from the rich to give to the poor, and while he wooed the Lady Marian played by a young Olivia de Havilland, she took plenty of knitting notes." Nottingham is an updated take on the traditional Robin Hood tunic for those of us who want something classic that's a bit of a throwback to another time. The slightly flared sleeves, trellis stitch accents, and v-neck lacing capture the medieval flair of my favorite outlaw hero minus the tights and the snazzy feathered hat. |
