Evie is a cute overtop, great as a cover up over swimwear or as a layering piece for winter.
Perfect for tweens and teens (and there is version for grown up women in the works!)

Worked in the round at first and then divided and worked flat to give the lovely wing effect to the sleeves Evie is a fun knit for an intermediate knitter.
If you can work in the round and work lace from a chart or written instructions then you will find knitting Evie a piece of cake!

The NZ yarn company Elan organic yarn is a sport weight, but it is suggested it is worked as a DK as the yarn blooms immensely upon washing.
