Exchecker is worked in two rectangles sewn together simply for a dramatic result. The tunic shape is flattering to most body types and is best worn with 6-8” of positive ease. This is a quick knit - great for casual and dressy occasions! The yarn gives the garment a wonderful weighty drape that does not grow!
