Notes

I wore my first Kallias so much last summer, that I decided I need another one in a different colour. I absolutely love this blue, it’s a soft shade of denim.

Knitted in this yarn, and at this gauge, it makes the perfect lightweight cover up on a cool summer’s evening.
It’s airy enough not to be too hot, and so light and soft to wear over a sleeveless tee when the chill sets in.

This one took 5g more than the first one, and is slightly longer, both body and sleeves. The length has shrunk upwards approx 1” on my first one with constant wear, so I added 1” in the length of body and sleeves in anticipation that it will behave the same!

Finished weight, 135g, 756m

Blocked measurements:
Length from top of shoulder to hem, 25”
