_______________________________

“Tristania” was designed when I was pregnant with my son, Tristan. Meant to be worn over a maternity or nursing tank top, “Tristania” features a gorgeously shaped back with cable detailing and lace panelling down the front, ending in a deep V to make breastfeeding a snap. The waist is a forgiving rib which flows downward into a tunic length bottom that flatters even those of us with an additional 10-lb human “under the hood” or, lets face it, an extra 10 lbs in the back.

That said, it need not be limited to the reproductively active! I fully intend to wear “Tristania” for years to come. I hope you enjoy this “baby” of mine as much as I do.


Errata

VERSION 2 (Dec 2018): none yet
VERSION 1: For size L, you will end up with 166 sts for the back instead of 164. Also use a “ssk” at the end of rows 6 and 12 in the lace chart instead of a double decrease.
