Smoothie by Marianne Isager
Craft: Knitting
This pattern is available on Ravelry(goes to new website)(opens in a new tab).
This construction is true to Marianne Isager’s summer top style. Simple increases and decreases create fabric movement, and interest while knitting. Fronts are worked from the shoulder pieces, and then eventually joined in the round.
This pattern can be A-line, or straight.
