Roxy Romper features decorative bobbles on the yoke and sleeves in reverse stockinette. The fit is loose and roomy. Worked seamlessly from the top down using 1 strand of either Merino, Cotton Merino or Pure Silk. Roxy Romper can be made with or without sleeves.
The charted yoke with bobbles is worked back and forth, while the body is worked in stockinette stitch in the round to the crotch. Front and back crotch are then worked separately back and forth, before the romper is finished with the optional sleeves in reverse stockinette stitch in the round.
The textured part of the yoke is charted only.
