Trompe l'Oeil
Would you like to instantly shrink the size of your hips? This clever design uses diagonal lines to create the illusion of a tapered silhouette. Like other sweaters in this book, KNITTING THE PERFECT FIT, its integrated neckband makes it easy—and tons of fun!—to finish.
Oodles of vertical lines make this design especially flattering. Add two diagonal lines at the hip and an open V-neckline to make this one a winner for everyone’s figure!
