Inspired by a love for stripes, experimentation, and geometry, Pyramis offers a delightful knitting experience with its effortless shaping and rhythmic pattern repeats. Create a versatile garment that you will truly cherish!

Construction: The top is knitted flat and sideways as one piece. You will start with the right shoulder, then separate the front and back to create a neck opening, then you will join the front and back to work the left shoulder. The front and back are identical in shaping. Once finished, you will join the sides using Three-Needle Bind Off and finish the neck and armholes with Applied I-Cord edging. You also have the option of adding 3/4-length sleeves.
