May-August CAL - Fab Kimono by Trish Young
A quick kimono style cardigan/shrug. It looks pretty fab, so fab kimono it is :D
It’s cropped length contrasts in style with the ever-popular summer maxi-dress. But it’s easy to make longer if you’d like.
It’s crocheted from side to side, making both front and back pieces at the same time (so there’s no seaming in the middle!). It is then folded in half with just 2 short sides to seam at the end.
This is a good layering piece for wearing with summer dress, t‐shirt, long sleeve shirt, or even buttoned up collared shirt.
Size:
Length (shoulder to lower edge) — 17″
Around — 60″
Pattern can be found here.
