Knit up a Florentine Kit shawl or tunic and cherish it for a lifetime. The kit is packed with Artyarns’ most luxurious hand-dyed Merino Cloud and Beaded Silk & Sequins Light in coordinating colors. One kit is all you need to make either a generous shawl or a tunic (2 versions), or add more yarn for a statement jacket. Patterns for all 4 are included with the kit.

Each kit contains:

• 2 half-skeins of Merino Cloud (80% Extra Fine Merino, 20% Cashmere – 437yds/400m, 100g) in two colors
• 4 skeins of Beaded Silk & Sequins Light in 4 colors (100% Silk w/ glass beads and sequins – 437yds/400m, 200g total)
• 4 downloadable patterns by renowned knitwear designer Iris Schreier – the Florentine Shawl measuring 18″ wide x 70″ long, the Scalloped Tunic with 2 sleeve versions (cap and sleeveless) measuring 36″ (43, 45, 54)” bust and 21″ (22, 23, 25)” length, and the Rib Tunic. Also included is a pattern for the Florentine Jacket – an oversized jacket which requires an additional 3 (3, 4, 4, 5) skeins of Big Merino Cloud for sizes 36″ (40, 44, 48, 52)” bust

Just add your own US 6 (4mm) needles for the shawl or tunics, or US 9 (5.5mm) needles and double pointed needles or 2 circulars for the jacket.
