We used Alpaca Silk Dk in Insurgent colorway for the pattern shown today: https://www.expressionfiberarts.com/c... Advanced Beginner - For those knitters who are ready to learn some new skills or stitch combinations. Stitches include: basic drop stitches, mattress seaming. Notes From the Designer: •Cumulus is a quick weekend knit project that adds interest and excitement to your wardrobe. This top features sections of simple openwork stitches and basic drop stitches with a combination of Garter Stitch and Stockinette Stitch backgrounds designed to keep things interesting while you knit. •Simple seaming creates an open shoulder design that can be easily altered for those who wish to make their tee in a more traditional style. Slit seams on each side and a longer length on the back make this a fun and flirty piece that is perfect for layering as temperatures fluctuate. In keeping with the customization theme of this design, I have included 8 sizes ranging from bust size 32” to bust size 60” with 2” of positive ease. •Rectangular pieces are knit flat from the bottom up and then seamed together using the mattress stitch with guidance from the schematic diagrams included in this pattern. We hope you ENJOY!!!
