Join the Knit Along!
Good to the Last Frost Knit Along -- Come join us! We officially kicked off on January 1, 2018, but you are welcome to join in at any time.

Long and cozy, this tunic will be the perfect topper to boots and leggings from the first dusting of frost in the fall to the last sparkles of frost in early spring. The gentle A-line shaping is flattering on most body types, making this a go-to sweater for brisk days when you want looking great to be effortless!

Knit seamlessly from the top down, the pretty lace details keep the knitting interesting, but not complicated. The yoke is worked back and forth until the bottom of the V-neck. It is then joined and worked in the round to the hem. The sleeves are then picked up and worked in the round. Finally, an I-cord edge is knitted onto the neck edge to provide structure.

Finished Bust Size: 30 (34, 38, 42) 46, 50, 54 in
76 (86.5, 96.5, 106.5) 117, 127, 137 cm

Recommended Fit: Chose a size that is between 2 in (5 cm) smaller and 2 in (5 cm) larger than your measured bust size, depending on how you like your garments to fit. The light grey sample has a finished size that is equal to the model’s measured bust size.
