Lilleke Tee
From: $131.00
by Aleks Byrd
This is the Lilleke Tee by Aleks Byrd, knit in Fior di Lino, a blend of Italian linen, baby yak, and Tibetan wool. For the yoke, Aleks’ mum used La Bien Aimée Wensley Worsted, which we swapped with our soft Baby Yak Medium.
DESCRIPTION
The Lilleke sweater is inspired by the Lilleke sock pattern. Initially, Aleks Byrd combined floral and tartan plaid patterns using Roosimine Estonian inlay knitting. Consequently, she loved the stitch pattern created for the socks so much that it had to be used on a sweater! This pattern is part of the Lilleke sweater collection consisting of Lilleke sweater and Lilleke light sweater.
mYak YARNS CHOICE
We knit ours in the following mYak Yarns: Fior di Lino and Baby Yak Medium. Size 4 shown
Each bundle contains the yarn you will need to complete your project.
You can purchase the pattern on Ravelry.
You can also create your own color combination by choosing your skeins in Fior di Lino and Baby Yak Medium
NOTES
On our baby yak colors, we only dye on the natural basis we have. No bleaching or decoloring. Each color will vary from season to season depending on the shade of the natural fiber, making it darker or lighter. This is the beauty of working with natural fibers. The shade of the sample you see photographed, will not always correspond to the shade we have in stock or at your local LYS.
