This tunic features an allover slip-stitch pattern to create diagonal lines which meet in the center. I think they look like carets, the proofreading mark to indicate an addition to the text; hence, the name of the tunic. The tunic is worked from the bottom up, and the sides are ribbed to the waist as a border for the side vents. The sleeves are worked top-down with short rows. I love this construction for set-in sleeves as you can try it on as you go. (Before I started using this technique, the sleeves in my sweaters were always a bit too short.)

Since this tunic is designed to be worn loosely over clothes, the finished measurements reflect 4” of positive ease.
