A modern basic shell with clean lines and a narrowed shoulder line, the Susan Shell works as a summer top or a layering piece under a jacket in cooler weather. Shell is worked flat and seamed.

Recommended ease is between 3” and 5” but it looks great with zero or negative ease as well.

You will need a seaming needle.

Feel free to adjust this for working in the round and doing a three-needle bind off.
