Who draws noble delights from sentiments of poetry is a true poet, though has never written a line in all their life.
-- George Sand

This is a pattern for a Fair-Isle style slip-over/tank/vest. It is worked in the round and from the bottom up. The neck and armholes are worked with steeks. After the steeks have been prepared and cut, the neck and armhole ribbing is worked.
