Iris kimono

"A traditional kimono provides an ideal canvas for these panels of iris, offset by a simple three-colour tweed stitch,” says Sasha Kagan. “The unusual sideways construction makes sizing and sleeve length easy to change, and the simple crochet trims highlight its geometric shape.”

This pattern is designed to fit five UK dress sizes, from size 8-10 (to fit bust 81-86cm) to 24-26 (to fit bust 122-127cm). You can find our knitting and crochet abbreviations here.
