Ilha Tee



Inspired by the art of basket weaving, this pattern showcases a beautifully textured yoke and elegant braided sides. Knit from the top down in the round, it begins with a delicate yoke, followed by raglan increases to shape the upper body. The design is finished with ribbed edges accented by subtle broken lines of twisted stitches.

Homework is required: 
Bring blocked swatch (knit in the round) to the first class. Cast on 30 stitches and work 4" in stockinette stitch on the largest needle. Block swatch and leave to dry. Do not pin or manipulate fabric.  Unsure about gauge and the swatching process? Take Lori's one-session Simplifying Gauge class!
