The kimono first appeared sometime between 300 and 550 AD during the Kofun Period in Japan and even today still represents a stroke of genius in the realm of clothing design. There are very few garments that have endured as clothing for so long, and very few have ever existed that flatter the body so well as they clothe it so practically. It is small wonder, then, that knitters throughout the world have been inspired by the kimono, setting their needles to work creating beautiful variations on this one brilliant, beautiful theme.

Fleece Artist, too, is inspired and brings you Trina, a side-to-side piece of easy knitting that flows off your needles to be put on and worn in warmth, beauty and happiness for many years. Tradition continues to meet the modern world in Trina, a beautiful kimono jacket that delights us in its simplicity and grace.
