The Cider House Rules

I'm a huge John Irving fan, and I thought this film adaptation of one of his best novels was pretty successful. Charlize Theron is, as usual, unbelievably gorgeous, and I really liked two of her sweaters in the film, both designed by knitwear designer Linda Daniels.

This warm cabled pullover - perfect for those blustery New England fall days :

I also really liked this simple, feminine boatneck sweater:

Linda Daniels published the Cider House boatneck pullover in her book, The Northampton Wools Knitting Book.

The cabled pullover was published in Interweave Knits Fall 2000.
