DARLING

Design Lisa Renner

This T-shirt is knitted from the top down. We begin with the back, working short rows first to shape the shoulders. Then, we knit across all stitches down to the armhole. For the front, we pick up stitches across the shoulder and knit the front sections, each side separately, until they are joined in the middle, and then knit further down to the armhole. The entire body is then joined and knitted downwards until the T-shirt reaches the desired length.
