Garter Stitch Tunic with Cowl Neck
Skill Level: 2 of 5
Regular price $10.50
(PDF)

LaBarre’s textured tunic takes advantage of Shelter’s wonderful garter stitch fabric – creating a soft and spongy fabric that is wonderful to cuddle up in. The garment is worked circularly from the top down and makes for a knitter-friendly experience with minimal finishing. We love the cozy cowl neck and the welted trim details. An offset columnar lace insertion adorns both front and back, and keeps the garter stitch rounds from becoming monotonous.
