Silky Twist Taj Tunic

designed by Iris Schreier

I designed this Taj Tunic in Silky Twist specifically to show off this interested patterning colorway, but any ombre shades in Silky Twist would be amazing.

This unusual pattern has a modular motif, and is knitted in 1 piece from the bottom up for identical front and back.
Then the two pieces are joined in the sleeve area and short sleeves are added on the angle.
Use the same pattern for all the sizes, just change the needle size and the gauge depending on size you are making. The angular style is so figure-flattering for all sizes and shapes.

• Materials: Silky Twist 4 sks OR Silky Twist 200 2 sks (shown in Rainbow Clouds colorway)
• Needles: Sizes 7 US / 4.5 mm (8 US / 5 mm, 9 US / 5.5 mm) or size to obtain gauge
• Sizes: Small (Medium, Large)
• Finished Sizes: 34/40″ (42/48″, 50/56″) chest circumference; 24” (27”, 31”) length from top of shoulder to bottom of hem
• Gauge: Small: 5.5 sts and 8 rows = 1” in FF Pattern (Medium: 4.5 sts and 7 rows = 1” in FF Pattern; Large: 4 sts and 6 rows = 1” in FF Pattern)

Cashmere 1 Ply Tube Scarf

designed by Iris Schreier

Just 1 skein of Cashmere 1 Ply makes this gorgeous tube scarf. It is knitted very loosely on large needles, because the lace weight cashmere fills in, and is light as a feather.

• Needles: Use Size 10 US needles for casting on and binding off. Then switch to Size 8US (5 mm) circular needles or size to obtain gauge
• Finished Measurements: 9-1/2″ wide (19″ circumference) and 31″ long
• Gauge: 4-3/4 sts and 6 rows = 1″ in Stockinette
