Graceful and season less. This yarn is very slinky and works well on draped designs. The gauge is loose for extra softness. The neckline is worked first, in the round. Then separate for front and back and worked downward. Side seams from underarm down. You might want to keep on knitting to make it into a dress! The slimming effect is achieved with contrasting panels of St st and rev St st, almost a colour blocking, without colour. I like to wear these with leggings and boots, or wide swishey palazzo pants. And don’t forget to pile on the jewellery!
