Libellula is a quick and fun knit. It is worked seamlessly from the top down, making it easy to adjust the length to your liking. As a mostly Stockinette stitch design, it is relaxing to knit. The contrasting color bands allow you to use an odd skein from in your stash, too. Enjoy your Fall knitting!

Measurements are given in both centimeters and inches.
