Bay L'Argent

CA$12.00

Round after round of relaxing stranded colourwork.

Bay L’Argent is a drop-shoulder, worked bottom-up from hem to shoulders and each sleeve is work from shoulder to cuff.

The hem ribbing is worked first, then the stranded colourwork is worked in the round from hem to underarm and worked flat from underarm to shoulders. The shoulders are joined with a 3-needle bind-off. The neckband is picked up and worked in the round, then sleeve stitches are picked up and the sleeves are worked down to the cuffs.
