Repartee is one of 12 designs in the Jubilæum Collection, celebrating 10 years of Ziggurating and design.

Repartee along with the Mysteriosa shawl make up Chapter 3.

Jubilæum Celebration KITS for Chapter 3 from Yarn Culture

Repartee is the perfect layering piece. Or for wear on on its own. Hem and cuffs are split for extra roominess. A wide neckline works either for layering or can make this a breezy summer Tee, perhaps knitted with a linen or silk blend? My own Repartee is knitted in Caravan, a soft and luxurious sportweight yarn from Yarn Culture – a natural choice for the Repartee Jubilæum Kits.

The stripes on my Repartee shift stealthily from grey to dark purple – the Caravan mini skeins are a really good excuse to play around with colours and stripes to create your own palette.
Or cook something up from stash!
Colouring sheet included.

  • There is some waist and (optional) rear shaping but the general shape is …generous
  • Optional sneaky bust dart (one size to not upset the striping)
  • Everything, as per ziggurately usual, is knitted in one go, top to bottom with sleeve caps created along the way
  • No seaming
  • Set-in cap sleeves
  • A slight A-line shaping creates a nice, comfortable fit
  • Photo tutorial
  • Colouring sheet

And as usual there is a Helpful Table to keep track of increases from shoulder to underarm cast on.
