Sizzle

Redsilkshell_2I don’t know about you, but there are times when you want to knit up something with a bit of attitude, a bit of flair. Sure, it’s great to knit something warm and cozy for those lonely or cold or snuggly nights but let’s face it, there are only so many cardi’s and pulli’s one can make in a lifetime.
So here’s a sleeveless shell with some easy-but-fancy dart action that you can knit in about three days that’ll show off whatever there is to show. And if you’re not into the old nudie thing, wear a camisole underneath or alter the neckline depth (I’ll tell you how). But if you do, just be sure you use some yarn that has a bit of shimmer and glimmer and sizzle.
….Because, honestly, it’s all about the sizzle.
