bottom-up sleeveless pullover
Call it a shell, or a tank top, or the sleeveless half of a twinset—a little sweater without sleeves is a wardrobe workhorse for all knitters, for warm or cold climates alike.

Start one today the easy way, by casting on and working the body in the round (no seaming!), or in two flat pieces. That will give you time to decide which details you’d like to incorporate: what neckline shape, how wide to make the shoulder straps, and how you’d like to edge it.

Unpatterns® are ‘road maps’ to get you from cast on to finishing without having to rely on someone else’s stitch-by-stitch instructions. This Unpattern, like the others in the series, helps you put together a project the fun way: by falling in love with some yarn, taking measurements from a garment that fits you well, and creating a design uniquely your own. On these pages, you will find a visual overview of your project, plus diagrams, worksheets, and step-by-step instructions to help you build your ideal garment.

Do you want to knit something for yourself, or as a gift for that special man or woman? And what neckline do you have in mind: round or V-neck? They’re all in here! It’s flexible, fun, and a great introduction to garment construction and design your way!
