Nightfall Top
The top is worked from the top down. The front and back pieces are worked the same, but mirrored. The project begins with a folded edge, followed by increases along the sides to shape the asymmetrical design. The two pieces are joined together below the armholes, and the body is then worked in stockinette stitch until the top reaches the desired length. Finally, a folded edge is worked to finish.
