Fluttering Tunic
About the pattern
Straight silhouette tunic designed with 10-18cm/4-7”of positive ease, deep neck opening, dropped shoulder, and decorative side seams.
The Fluttering tunic is worked in contrasting vertical print shaped with short rows while working in Garter.
Asymmetric shoulder slope and different width for front and back prevent the garment from pulling up at front for large sizes.
