Smoothie by Marianne Isager

This pattern is available on Ravelry.

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.

Exact yardage is tricky to determine since every 2 rows, both yarns are held together.
