Xiao Mai 小麥 Chunky Stitch Bundle

Xiao Mai 小麥 by Layla Yang is featured in Neons & Neutrals: A Knitwear Collection Curated by Aimée Gille of La Bien Aimée!

Xiao Mai is an oversized jacket with wide kimono sleeves. It has a truly stunning chunky stitch over the whole body and sleeves that is made using 8 strands of lace weight yarn in 5 different colors of Felix by La Bien Aimée. The "Original Light" chunky stitch bundle contains all the yarn you will need to recreate this chunky stitch (the body of this sample is knit in Qing Fibre Pearl Tumbleweed and Melted Baby Suri White.)

Here's what Layla says about the design:

"When I heard about Aimée’s new book, I instantly started thinking about some design ideas. This design was inspired by the beautiful texture of woven textiles. I combined that idea with leftover yarn to create a unique garment."

Please note: these bundles do not contain the yarn required to knit the body of the jacket, only the 8 strands of lace weight yarn that make up the "chunky stitch" that covers the body and sleeves.
