Who ever said knitting can’t be sexy? Sure you’ll PROBABLY wear something on the bottom with this bodysuit… but it’ll stay tucked in and I promise you’ll feel amazing in it.

The 9 to 5 Bodysuit is the ultimate top-down, snap-at-the-bottom customizable piece of knitwear. You’ll choose your “top” size based off of the provided schematic, then follow the formulas given to ensure a perfect fit on bottom. Get creative, have fun, and knit yourself up something nice (and hot!)

Don’t let the formula scare you: you will have to use your noggin’ a little to figure out how to spread out the hip increases and decreases, but have no fear. Use this pattern as a way to teach yourself how to customize future patterns.
