Inspired by Grace Kelly in Alfred Hitchcock’s Rear Window, this pullover combines modern clean lines with classic styling. It can be worn for a night on the town or maybe an evening of spying on those suspicious neighbors!

My project notes: This is the second design I created for the Silver Screen Knits collection. I was inspired by the close fit of Grace Kelly’s Paris dress and the low-cut neckline of the original, and I decided to translate that into a sleek, modern tee. The top is worked from the bottom up, in four pieces, then seamed. The overall fit is body conscious and the front and back necklines are a low scoop, which makes this top perfect for an evening out, yet it is work appropriate when worn under a jacket.
