For those who have mastered basic knitting techniques and are ready to expand their skills. Patterns may introduce slightly more complex techniques and patterns, such as shaping, increasing, decreasing or working multiple colors or easy lace patterns. The yarn weight may vary, and the patterns might introduce working with double-pointed needles or circular needles. Patterns will help knitters gain confidence and experience with new techniques while still working within a manageable level of difficulty.
Description
Designed to echo the quiet elegance of the seaside, the Fanshell Tee’s enchanting lace shell pattern cascades gracefully down the center front and along the sleeves. Knitting with the luxuriously soft Amble, you’ll feel the gentle embrace of the soft merino and alpaca fibres as the piece is worked in the round from the bottom up.
The neckline, hem, and cuffs are edged with garter stitch and reflect the subtle allure of the seaside’s simplistic beauty. Tailor this piece to your preference with three sleeve lengths, allowing for a personal touch of comfort and style. Ideal for soul-soothing strolls and moments of quiet reflection, this top isn’t just worn—it’s experienced.
