The Lost Off Shoulder
This pattern also come with bonus instructions for the mini version of the lost off shoulder as well. This mini version is not specifically intended to fit a particular doll or toy, and was designed for myself to have mini versions of all my patterns for display too see my designs.
Construction
The Lost Off Shoulder is worked from the top down, beginning at the yoke and working the sleeves and body stitches at the same time. Stitches for the sleeves are then placed on hold, and underarm stitches are cast on with the body worked in the round. Each sleeve is picked up and worked one at a time to the desired lengths.
Skill Level Advanced Beginner
