I specialize in fashionable, fun and easy designs for beginner and intermediate knitters, so I’ve come up with this SUPER EASY design that will delight new knitters and please more experienced knitters. The boat neck, sleeveless shell is a classic look, but I’ve add a little interest by including a bit of waist shaping. This provides a gentle drape to the lower edge and is flattering for all figures. I’ve also included a fashionable slit at the bottom side edges.

One of the photos shows the top under my “You Can Do It” Simply Elegant Cardigan,“ which is a pattern sold separately, but I think they look great together!

The matching purse, knitted in the round, completes the look.

As with all my designs, if you have any questions as you knit, please contact me via the Email listed on the pattern. It’s important to me that you have fun and end up with a spectacular result, so I’m here in my office waiting for your questions.

Thank you for looking at my design.
