Chanty Crop
Chanty is worked from the top down with a seamless circular yoke construction and short row shaping that is done to raise the neck for a better fit. The body is designed with minimal shaping while still maintaining a comfortable fit. A simple colorwork hem finishes the top.
This design is simple enough for an adventurous beginner, yet still engaging for advanced knitters.
Body and sleeve lengths are both easily adjustable (see testers projects), but keep in mind that those changes will alter the yardage required.
