Skew Camisole

The **Skew Camisole** is a simple, everyday piece designed to be a versatile highlight in your wardrobe. Worked in the round with two strands of yarn held together through the bodice, then shaped with short rows worked flat to create an asymmetrical silhouette, it is finished with a gentle, romantic ruffle hem picked up and worked along the lower edge. This pattern includes two sample versions to suit different seasons: Spring/Autumn (Sample 1): Worked in single-ply wool and silk mohair, featuring a soft, full ruffle in double strands of mohair. Summer (Sample 2): Worked in a ramie silk wool blend held with linen, finished with a lightweight, breathable single-strand ruffle. **Sizes & Measurements** Sizes: 1 (2) 3 (4) 5 (6) 7 (8) Bust Circumference: 74 (80) 87 (94) 102 (110) 120 (130) cm / 29.1 (31.5) 34.3 (37.0) 40.2 (43.3) 47.2 (51.2)" Body Length (underarm to ruffle hem): Shortest point: 24.5 (25) 25.5 (26) 26.5 (27) 28 (29) cm / 9.6 (9.8) 10.0 (10.2) 10.4 (10.6) 11.0 (11.4)" Longest point: 34.5 (36) 37.5 (38.5) 39.5 (41) 43.5 (45.5) cm / 13.6 (14.2) 14.8 (15.2) 15.6 (16.1) 17.1 (17.9)" **Choosing Your Size**: Spring/Autumn Version (Layering): Designed to be worn over T-shirts or base layers. I recommend choosing a size with at least 2 cm / 0.75" up to approx. 6–8 cm / 2.5–3" of positive ease relative to your actual bust circumference, depending on how oversized you'd like it.

I recommend choosing a size with 0–4 cm / 0–1.5" of negative ease. **Gauge** 22 sts x 27 rounds = 10 x 10 cm / 4" on 4.0 mm / US 6 needles in stockinette stitch in the round with MC and CC held together, after blocking. **Needles** 4.0 mm (US 6 / UK 8) circular needle, 60 cm / 24" 4.0 mm (US 6 / UK 8) double pointed needles (DPNs) Note: Adjust needle size if necessary to obtain the correct gauge. **Yarn** Sample 1 (spring/autumn version) MC: 1 (1) 1 (1) 1 (2) 2 (2) skeins of Singles by Bon Appetit Yarn (100% superwash merino, 366m - 100g) in colorway Peace.
