SUMMER SALE - all my self published patterns including eBooks are 50% off until Sunday midnight (GMT) 22nd June, no code needed.

First you knit the front and back flat increasing at the shoulders on both right and wrong side. After the shoulder length is reached, the garment is knitted in the round with sleeve increases knitted at the same time. Optional short rows create a gentle curving back hem. Stitches are picked up around the neck and armholes and finished with ribbing. You can easily adjust the armhole depth and the over all body length but this might alter the amount yarn required.
