L & B Yarn Co.’s Paper Poncho is such a easy knit and makes such a cute poncho. It’s the perfect garment to throw on over your favorite summer tank! We knit this out of 4 skeins of Lang Sol Degrade a light knitted 100% cotton yarn with attractive long-repeat dégradé dye effect.

This yarn is super soft and knits like a dream. The pattern is great for knitters at any level with minimal seaming it knits up quickly. If you are a beginner you just need to know how to knit and purl and if you are an experienced knitter its a great project to relax while you knit.

#6 Side Slit Tee

May 31, 2017May 31, 2017 - Amberly Frost Leave a comment

This side-slit pullover by Deborah Helmke updates the classic boat-neck silhouette. Knit in allover reverse stockinette, it blurs the dappled mauve, forest, salmon and golden-rod of Mirai colorway #16. Mirai from Noro is a cotton blend using equal parts of silk and viscose, a perfect lightweight summer fabric.

Flowing up from the double-rib hem, stockinette bands trim the high side slits. Also edged in double ribbing, the trim three-quarter sleeves keep a slim line through the drop-shoulder shape. To maintain an even color sequence, one body piece and sleeve are completed before the second body piece is begun.

You can find the pattern for the Side Slit Tee in Noro Magazine, Spring/Summer 2017, Issue 10 available at L & B Yarn Co. just click here. The Noro Trunk show is here at L & B Yarn Co. and includes 16 models knit or crocheted in Taiyo Sock, Taiyo, and Marai so come by the shop to check out the #6 Side Slit Tee and more.
