The Summer Kimono is made with cotton yarn and great for those cool summer nights or warm spring days. The beautiful pattern along the edging and the back make for a unique piece.

The body of the kimono is made in one part with seams at the shoulders. The sleeves are picked up from the body of the kimono. Thus, less sewing and construction after the knitting and the sooner you can wear your lovely knit item. The body of the kimono can be made on straight needles or circular needles. The sleeves need to be knit with circular or double pointed needles.

Finished size: 44” circumferential measurement of sweater x 24” length of body of sweater**
