Jewel Lake Pullover
One of my family’s favorite weekend destinations is Tilden Park in Berkeley, a beautiful outdoor space that features a stunning body of water known as Jewel Lake. The relatively short hike to the lake is filled with diverse flora and fauna, making every visit a new adventure. We often spot snakes, frogs, and turtles along the way, creating cherished memories that we hold dear. Inspired by these delightful mornings spent in nature, I designed the Jewel Lake Pullover—a simple yet elegant top-down boat neck pullover that embodies the serene colors of Lorna’s Laces Shepherd Worsted yarn. This versatile sweater is perfect for any occasion; it can be dressed up with a chic skirt or dressed down with casual jeans. Whether accessorized with a ribbon or worn simply on its own, the Jewel Lake Pullover is a wardrobe staple you’ll want to wear throughout the entire season.
