Knitted flat from the bottom up, folded over and seamed, this pattern features basic stitches and simple construction.

This pattern has been tested and edited, however, the nature of the pattern means that everyone’s size will be slightly different. Numbers included in the pattern are an approximation and I am happy to help with any questions you may have about the math.
