Iris (Kit)
This lightweight top has two options for sleeves. The flutter sleeves are left unseamed at the edges so they flutter and add unexpected interest. It's a playful and unique style. The kimono sleeves have a relaxed yet elegant look because it has a larger portion of see-through fabric.
[CONSTRUCTION]
The Front and Back are worked separately from the bottom up without shaping. Stitches for the sleeves are picked up and knit out from the body.
