PATTERN NOTES
The name of this design foreshadows just how much complicated shaping goes into the body of this garment: none at all! The front and back peplum are knit flat in garter stitch. The two sets of stitches are then joined in the round, and the body is worked upward in the round in stockinette stitch. Want more or less length? Simply knit more or less of the peplum before joining.
