CurveLine is a top down and seamless sweater with a saddle shoulder knitted using the contiguous method developed by SusieM.

The body is cropped and boxy. The right side of the collar flows over the shoulder creating an asymmetric look. The lower back is lengthened with short rows and then shaped to create a billowing effect. The armhole is relaxed. The result is a comfortable and slouchy sweater that will sit slightly off centre.

The asymmetric collar, a panel down the left sleeve, a panel down the right side of the body and the bands are all worked in twisted rib.
