This is an easy knit, that will need 2 or 3 skeins of fingering/sock/light sport weight yarn (100g/ 3 1/2 oz). Perfect for those hand painted skeins! This classic design bridges the “seasonal gap” when hot summer cools to fall and then again in spring.

The upper section is worked flat, one piece, in St st. The bottom section is worked in the round, after picking up stitches.

The pattern PDF has 3 pages : colour cover and 2 black/white text, schematic and photo of garment flat. Metric and Imperial measurements.
