Every now and then you find a yarn so lovely that you save it in your stash for just the right project. That’s the reaction I had when I first discovered Blue Sky Alpaca’s Worsted Hand Dyes, which is soft yet sturdy and perfect for capturing the casual, sweatshirt-type feeling of this tunic. I made the neckline wide, shaped the arm openings with elastic, and gathered the midriff with pleats, resulting in a comfortable, warm tunic that can be worn with just about anything.
