about riley

RILEY, created in the super luxurious combination of Magpie Fiber’s Swanky Sock and Feather, is a perfect layering piece for the changing seasons.
Using one strand of Swanky Sock held together with one strand of Feather throughout, RILEY is worked in the round from the bottom up, then divided at the armholes and worked flat to the shoulders. A deep alternating rib is worked at the hem. RILEY is finished with a 1 × 1 rib cowl and the ribbing at the deep armholes is shaped at the underarm with short rows to eliminate bulk.
