Notes

Will convert the pattern into a lightweight summer tunic.
When I saw this amazing stitch pattern the first time a ethic style tunic just popped in my head.
A-line and with crocket elements and a cord for the neckline (maybe with beads?)

We go on vacation by the sea this summer and the tunic will be a great easy to wear piece for the beach, so I had to find a airy summer yarn. Tropical is surprisingly smooth and knits up beautiful with a nice sheen and a great stitch definition. I was very impressed!

Eine Anleitung für die Tunika gibt es in meinen Blog
