As always, I have a Teaser Trailer for this pattern where I discuss construction, modifications, yarn choice, sizing, and more. Check it out here!

Rosslyn is a top-down, seamless mock-turtleneck garment, with a stylish cropped length that is easily customized. This chic fall and spring transition piece looks great under a blazer or a jacket for chilly evenings. Rosslyn knits up surprisingly quickly, with no sleeve-island to be stranded on! I have included notes in the pattern on modifications that you can incorporate as well, including guidance for changing length, adding sleeves, and incorporating waist shaping.

This pattern works best with a bouncy yarn with good stitch definition and good memory. I would not recommend using a 100% cotton yarn for this pattern.
