The Design
“Light & easy & clever.”
Lyon, designed by Shibui Knits for Madelinetosh, is all about clever versatility! With a long, clean shape, it’s essentially a smart poncho with a pretty detail along the seam. Wear it backwards, forwards, to the side—any way you like. The fabric is fine enough that you can even scrunch it around your neck as a scarf
Lyon was knit in Madelinetosh —a lace-weight blend of recycled silk, merino wool, and cashmere. With a tweedy look, but a cashmere touch, Tosh Pebble adds a bit of textural interest and lots of soft warmth to your knitted fabric!
The Lyon pattern is free and included in your order with the purchase of seven skeins of Madelinetosh Tosh Pebble—the yarn necessary to complete the project.
