Turn heads wherever you go!! A very flattering neckline, and stunning sleeves too. This sweater has non-traditional, innovative construction and simple techniques. It's worked in one piece so it's easy to adjust for a perfect fit as you go. Wear the tunic length tank in summer, and the long sleeved version the rest of the year.
This pattern is worked in sport/dk weight yarn, and has a gauge of 18 st over 4 inches on size 6 (4mm) needles (after blocking for yarns with no memory--silk and vegetable fibers). Wouldn't this look fantastic in a space dyed yarn, shading from the center out? Or the subtle shading of a tape yarn could really send this design to new heights. Use your imagination!
