To celebrate Fabulous Yarns’ new Tivoli Uno, with its
beautiful semi-solid colours, I designed this high-necked
Tabard, with the option for open or closed sides, and/or tie
belt, so you can choose to wear it as loose or snug around
your waist as you like! If you’d prefer closed sides, you can
choose how deep you want your armholes, or how high
you’d like the side splits - It’s a make your own story
pullover!
