The versatile tabard, usually reserved for cooler weather, makes a transition to summer when worked in a cotton-based yarn, Noro Uchiwa. The simple front and back show off the yarn’s coloring. Seed stitch finishes the edges, and seed-stitch tabs, three on each side, hold the pieces together.
Noro Uchiwa sports unique contrasting color twists that create an eye-catching tweedy marl. At the same time, a longer, more subtle color blending produces a beautiful gradation in the background coloring.
