Mary Henderson has combined her two favourite styles, Fair Isle and lace, to create her yoked tunic. It’s knitted from the top down, with a stranded colourwork yoke, and a lace panel on the centre front for added interest.
The tunic has short sleeves and positive ease, to allow it to be layered over a blouse or T-shirt in the winter months.
