(Note: the yardage is the total for all three colours - the main colour requires slightly more than 1/3 of that, the other two are slightly less.)

Inspired by the interplay of colours and the drape of the yarn, this half-sleeved tunic skims the high waist. The slightly longer length and waistline gathering may it perfect to wear with skinny trousers or leggings.

A slip stitch colour pattern is a great entry into colourwork - each row only uses one colour at a time. Worked in the round from the bottom up, the first stitch of the second round with each colour is slipped to prevent colour jogs.
