Parallel Planes came to existence to add twirl in our lives. This one-piece knit will show you how to create a shapeful top-down garment that grows somewhat circularly. The sleeves are also top-down, and shaped with several short rows and decreases for a perfect fit.

In the LINEAR collection, this piece breaks the norm by using straight lines to shape curves, and the garter details create texture for your garment to become an expression of yourself.
