it’s lovely. do you like it? i have read some reviews on it and people didn’t like how it knit up, the instructions or the finished project. it made me think twice about knitting it. but yours is lovely and makes me want to ignore the gossip.

Melinda: thanks!
Britt: I love it! The pattern is really simple and the instructions are about 1/2 of a very small page of Glamour knits – but they were clear enough. How hard it is to knit four rectangular pieces with simple 2 row stitch pattern and sew them together, after all!
Be sure to pick the yarn with good drape, it should be a bit on the thin side for the requested gauge to emphasize the drape even further. If the material is too stiff, this shape will certainly not work!
The silhouette is unusual, but very wearable.
