This updated athletic wear design has a funnel neck, long full sleeves, and an oversized fit for stylish comfort, with just enough stitch texture and shaping details to keep it interesting. Valley Yarns easy-care Haydenville provides the softness and warmth that knitters crave. Mid-hip length garment has A-line shape and long full sleeves, with double hems for structure. All hems feature a basketweave textured border. It is worked from the bottom up, starting flat for the split hem, and then in the round to the armholes. From armholes to neck, it is worked flat again, and the shoulders are joined using the three-needle bind-off technique. Sleeves are worked up to the modified drop shoulders with increase shaping, beginning with a basketweave textured border. The relaxed funnel neck is worked from picked-up neckline stitches, and includes yarnover eyelets through which to feed an i-cord tie.
