NOTES
This top down camisole begins with the front neckline, worked flat. After stitches are cast on for the back, the body is worked in the round to the hem. Box pleats above the hem end the chevron pattern while reducing stitches quickly to form a hem with less ease than the bust. Shoulder straps are worked in I-cord from the front and seamed to the back using Kitchener stitch. Tips on how to work well-fitting straps are included. Choose the size with 0-2” of positive ease around the bust.
