Show sass with class in a lacy knitted shell or pullover! Comprised of two simple rectangles, this pert piece boasts a cropped body in Cabled Lattice and an hourglass panel in Twisted Stockinette. Optional wide–cuff sleeves offer a stylish choice for cooler weather.

Front and back are worked separately in rows from bottom up, then sewn together at shoulders and sides. For shell, stitches are picked up along arm edges to make armhole bands. For pullover, sleeves are worked in rows from bottom up, then sewn into armholes.
