ISOBEL is worn with top buttons forming closure at neckline and upper chest, with front edges forming cutaway across body. Size up if you have wide shoulders or want a more generous fit across top of tunic; then customize with waist/hip shaping. Body of garment may also be blocked out after finishing. Advanced beginners will find ISOBEL a rewarding knit: not quite a sweater, but with some intermediate techniques such as: provisional cast on, increasing, decreasing, and short rows. ISOBEL...Just-off-the-sheep rugged tunic…whose high collar, seed stitch front bands, and laced back give it a fashion-forward edge without sacrificing a practical warm wearability. |
