A nice simple knit, the asymmetric opening results in a kimono style shape. It is quite a large, loose fit on the body so look carefully at the actual measurements to decide which size to knit.

We suggest adding a popper-style jigger button (a functional but not visible inner button) to keep the item partly closed and to achieve a leaner, more stream-lined look.

Circular needles are used to accommodate the number of stitches, you still work back and forth in rows.
