Livø Kimono features an elegant design with an oversized fit, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor wear. Livø is knitted in slip-stitch pattern, creating a beautiful textured look – and it’s a fun technique to work with. The kimono is knitted in Tweed and Blow, which together create a rich and vibrant play of colours.

How to knit it
Livø Kimono is worked from the top down in a slip-stitch pattern and with a European shoulder. First the upper part of the back is worked, then the upper part of the front sections down to the underarms, after which the sections are joined. The body is worked back and forth. The sleeves are worked top down to three-quarter length. Finally, stitches are picked up to work the wide front edges.
