Balance is so important in all of our lives, and I try to live mine in as balanced a manner as possible, both physically and mentally. Your heart is the center of that balance, and this fun little top makes a point of that with the repeat of hearts down the center front. The garment is worked in the round, bottom up to the armholes, beginning with a deep 4” ribbing, split for front and back, German short rows worked for shoulder shaping, then shoulders joined with three-needle bind-off. Sleeves are picked up around the armholes and worked down. The final touch is a 2x2 ribbing at the neckline.
