CONSTRUCTION
The LOST One Shoulder is worked from the bottom up, beginning at the hem and working up to the underarms. Stitches are then placed on hold and divided to work your front and back. The neckline is decreased to create a sloped edge and form your one shoulder top.
Note that the top is reversible and can be worn on either the left or right shoulder. For ease, the pattern will state that the ‘front’ section is for the left shoulder and the ‘back’ section is the right shoulder.
