Ginko Leaf Tunic Ginko Leaf Tunic
from Fiddlesticks Knitting

Redesigned for Fiddlesticks Knitting Silken Merino, this graceful tunic has a pretty lace and cable design which suggests overlapping ginko tree leaves.

The tunic is knit in the round from the bottom edge to the armholes. Then the front and back are worked separately and the shoulder seams are joined. The sleeves are knit back and forth from the cuff and sewn into the armholes. Charts for all sizes take the guesswork out of shaping in lace. Sample is shown in Size 1 and colour Moss.

 Fabulous new needles from Addi Turbo

Addi Turbo Lace Knitting Circular Needles
These excellent needles from Addi Turbo offer you enhanced features for lace, sock, and texture knitting. They have sharp tips making it easier to work fine stitches; the needles are coated to give just the right amount of 'stick' so you have better control of lace stitches; and they have smooth joins between the needles and cord.

When selecting a needle size note that while the pattern has a suggested size (see above for Recommended needle size), you may need to use a different needle size in order to get gauge. If your experience with other Fiddlesticks patterns is that you have to go up or down a needle size to match gauge, then select the appropriate size.
