The Flocon Tee is a cute pullover with a sparkling snowflake pattern.
Designed by Rui Yamamuro.
Flocon means snowflake in French. The ridged slip stitch creates a three-dimensional snow pattern on the body and sleeves. The delicate and silky mohair Bérénice is knitted together to create a shimmering, romantic look.
The dropped shoulders create a relaxed silhouette. This is a kit for a light, 3/4 sleeve Flocon Tee, but if you purchase additional yarn, you can make a long sleeve Flocon Tee with the same pattern. You can knit a Flocon Sweater.
Knit the back yoke by increasing stitches from the shoulders down. Pick up the stitches of the front body separately along both shoulders, increase the neckline and then join them. Join the front and back body at the armpits to make a loop and knit with Ridged slip stitch to the hem. Then pick up the sleeve stitches along the armhole, make the sleeve cap with back stitch, and knit the sleeves in a circle with Ridged slip stitch. Finally, pick up the stitches along the neckline and knit the collar with twisted ribbing.
