This sleeveless shell pattern is in a combination of lace, simple two stitch cable, and ribbed stitches. The construction is two pieces seamed together at the sides and shoulders.

The neck stitches are kept on a holder and then picked up for the collar. The size of the pattern is written 3-5 inches smaller than actual size to allow for stretching, which enhances the look of the pattern. The collar is finished with an I-cord bindoff.
