We are delighted to present the Biches & Bûches No. 73 little short-sleeved tee or jumper, designed by Astrid at the Atelier with Biches & Bûches Le Cashmere & Lambswool (for the original Edition), with Le Petit Silk & Mohair worked in a contrasting color for the motif. A delicate lace pattern combined with a small colorwork detail comes together to form a beautiful yoke

Construction
The Design is worked in the round, top down. It is knitted in stockinette stitch with a stranded colorwork motif and an openwork lace pattern. The edges are worked in 2×2 ribbing. The sleeves are worked top down, making it easy to adjust them to the desired length. Le Petit Silk & Mohair is worked single throughout.
