Designer Marlaine DesChamps brings her special talents to this Bright & Breezy Kimono. Essentially three rectangles knit in a simple eyelet stitch, the kimono is a wonderful first garment project, as there is no shaping. Just stitch, seam and you’re done! And because it’s knit in Simply Soft®, this lovely piece drapes beautifully.
