Moisson
As a Christmas gift I offer 25% off for all my patterns, until the 31th of december 2019. Happy Christmas to every ones!
Worked in a budget wool, easy to work, confortable and unisex Moisson is a basic garment for winter.
It has the construction of a poncho with a wide opening at the front. Right side and left side may hang like a cape or be wrapped around the neck like a shawl. There are many fun ways to wear this garment.
It consists of three rectangles worked in stockinette with a small pattern at the bottom that recalls the sheaves of wheat (hence its name, Moisson!) The top of the yoke is worked in twisted ribs to give neckline and shoulders some stability. The only small difficulty lies in the grafting of the three rectangles.
It is offered in single size: Width: 51 in (130 cm), Height: 30⅓ in (77 cm). It is very easy to adapt length and width according to your own choice.
