Crankle Tunic
I’d like to offer 20% discount for my new pattern now through midnight on June 5, (EST time zone) Coupon Code Crankle
Straight tunic with 10-18cm/4-7” of positive ease, V-neck and long dolman sleeves. Asymmetric shoulder slope and offset sleeves allow for better fit, especially in larger sizes.
The tunic is decorated with a vertical panel
The garment is worked in 1 piece sideways, flat:
• Start at the side of the decorative panel (including the neck opening);
• Work the right half of the garment all the way to the cuff;
• Pick up live stitches of the panel cast-on & work left half symmetrically;
• Seam the sides and sleeves together and reinforce shoulders with crochet chains to prevent the fabric from sagging;
• Make applied I-cord along the neckline, hem, cuffs and sides of the decorative panel
YARN:
sport-weight linen (~300-320m/330-350 yds per 100g/3.5oz) in 2 colors (see yardage below).
The sample was knit out of Quince & Co. Sparrow (100% linen, 154m/168yds per 50g/1.8 oz ball) in colorways Fundi (blue) and Penny (orange). It is important to use yarns with high linen content for the drape (cotton, silk and bamboo should also work, but no more than 20% wool content!). Don’t worry if your fabric skews and looks uneven, linen will even our after blocking. Suggested substitutes:
• Karen Oberg ‘Kalinka’ (320m/350yds per 100g/3.5oz, 100% linen)
• Katia ‘Lino 100%’ (150m/164yds per 50g/1.8oz; 100% linen)
• BC Garn ‘Lino’(150m/164yds per 50g/1.8oz; 100% linen)
NEEDLES:
• Main: 3.25mm/US3 (or size to get gauge!) circulars, 2 pairs: on a 40 & 80cm/16 & 32” cables;
• I-cord/hem: 3mm/US2.5 (or 1 size smaller than the main) circulars on a ~60cm/24” cable.
NOTIONS: waste yarn, crochet hook, stitch markers, row counter (optional), tapestry needle, scissors.
GAUGE (PER 1010CM/ 44” AFTER WET-BLOCKING, SLIGHTLY STRETCHED OUT WIDTH-WISE)
Stockinette: 22 stitches by 30 rows
