Quill

$8.50

Worked seamlessly top-down in the round from the Collar to Hem, Quill features a beginner friendly two-color stranded colorwork yoke, inspired by the delicate motif of a feather. This fingering weight tee is written for two body length options, Cropped or Standard, and is finished with short sleeves for warm weather months or layering at anytime of the year!

Quill is worked from the top down, allowing you to try it on as you go and easily adjust the finished length to your preference. This tee is knit primarily in the round, with exception for German short rows incorporated below the collar, to raise the back of the neck slightly. Designed to fit with 1-4” / 2.5-10 cm of positive ease, to allow for a relaxed fit with beautiful drape.

This is an Intermediate level pattern. The colorwork is charted only.

Note! In purchasing this product you will receive a digital download PDF of the pattern for the item pictured, not an actual finished item.
