Tiered Tunic

The Tiered Tunic is an easy-to-knit, fun-to-wear design! Knit from the bottom up, this top features a
roomy skirt with tiers of alternating stockinette and interrupted garter stitch moving up to the fitted bust. I-cord bind offs finish the neckline and armholes for a smooth and strong edging. This tunic is knit up in Purl Soho’s Cattail Silk, which makes it perfect for knitting and wearing alone in the warmer months as well as comfortable to layer in the fall and winter!
