A fun and effortless knit designed to bring a burst of color and personality to any outfit. La Piccolina is a modern accessory that playfully mimics the shape of a tie, perfect for dressing up a simple jeans-and-tee look or adding a twist of flair to your everyday style.

Worked in five vibrant shades of our luxurious Baby Yak Silk, this lightweight piece is all about enjoying the rhythm of stripes and blocks while letting the colors shine. Easy going yet striking, La Piccolina is that small touch with a big impact — bold, stylish, and joyfully knit.

NOTES
It doesn’t get any easier than casting on and knitting in stockinette. La Piccolina is knit with stripes and color blocks. Yarn can be carried up in sections and will need to be cut and a few ends woven in as you go. To keep a nice edge the last stitch on each row is slipped purl wise. As long as you keep track of how much yarn you are using there is enough to make your version longer if you wish. Part of the design is letting stockinette do what stockinette does, curl. So when blocking NOT use pins just let it roll and dry.
