Silk Road is a 2-in-1 knitting pattern that includes both a T-shirt and a longsleeve in one design. With the same base construction, you can choose between a short-sleeved version and a full longsleeve, making this pattern especially versatile. The pattern also includes 2 neckline options - a narrower neckline and a wider neckline - so you can choose the fit and look you prefer. Ease for this garment is 10-12 cm.

Designed with a modern European shoulder, Silk Road combines minimalism, comfort, and elegance. The garment is worked top down and seamlessly, with neat i-cord finishing on the neckline, hem, and sleeves. Knitted in 100% silk, it feels refined, timeless, and special - a piece that can easily become a wardrobe favorite.

This pattern includes detailed written instructions, as well as photo and video support for the more difficult steps. It is suitable for intermediate knitters and above.
