EMMA'S SHIRT

At first Emma’s Shirt is worked flat, using short rows to work the neck opening. The work will then be closed to knit in the round. First the yoke is formed and afterwards the sleeves and body will be worked in the round. The Shirt is finished by attaching an i-cord edge and one button to the back neck opening.
