Shel Designs, in collaboration with Shibui Knits, presents Fleur a simple
women’s short sleeve tee knit with Silk Cloud and Vine held together. This pullover
is knit in the round from the bottom up, then divided at the armholes. The body
is then worked flat to the shoulders. The sleeves are knit flat and set in.
Slight A-line shaping adds movement at the hemline. Shibui Knits Vine is a
one-of-a-kind yarn featuring a ribbon of paper twined with delicate strands of
a cotton and silk blend yarn.
