Knitted from the top-down, this duster is made with 3 strands of lace-weight held together. It features ¾ sleeves, inset pockets, and a kick pleat. Three neck closure options are given in the pattern: I-cord, I-cord button loop, and shawl pin. The stitching for the raglan seams is repeated in faux side seams and on cuffs and lower border. It is incredibly light-weight.

Five colors are used, combined three strands at a time, AAA, AAB, ABB, and so on.

Note that the yardage estimate provided is for the total yardage of lace weight yarn, not taking into consideration that three strands are held together. If you choose to use a single strand of a heavier yarn, to get gauge you will need approximately 1800 to 2100 yards.
