This is the ‘Folkloric Tunic’ in the Vogue Knitting Fall 2012 magazine … and is nothing I ever thought I’d be knitting.  But I’ve got to tell you, this is a lovely and interesting knit, however I would not have started this one without Kim raving and almost drooling over this sweater and then nudge, nudge, nudging me into knitting it … (OK, lots of times I need that!)

It may look intimidating, but is really quite simple ~ just a few short rows and yarn changes, slips and knits.  And it is working up amazingly fast and gorgeous.  Cast on was Thursday night, and here’s a photo of the back with about half the bottom band done … will post more as time and progress permits.

There is a great project page on Ravelry that also comments piece by piece … here’s the link:  http://www.ravelry.com/projects/manhattanmarg/09-folkloric-tunic, she’s way ahead of me!
And if you’d like a KAL on this project just let us know, we have lots of yarn options I’m thinking would work for this jewel of a knit!
