INTRODUCTION
Christine is a pullover that is worked bottom up. You begin by knitting in a round. Then you divide for the front and back. You work the shoulder and neck shaping flat. You will seam the shoulders together. Next you will work the sleeves flat. Then you will seam the sleeves together and then attach to the body. After the seaming is done you will steam or wet block your garment.

This garment can be made as a tank or a pullover. The body is made the same for both versions.
To modify the length of the pattern you can add / remove rows before you split for the front and back. Be sure to add or remove 4 rows at a time of the drop stitch pattern.
