Bamboo Shell

Discover the perfect summer knitting project with our stylish shell, designed for those hot sunny days! This versatile shell can be worn on its own or layered under your favorite blazer or jacket for a chic look. Featuring an all-over bamboo stem texture, this design creates a lovely slimming vertical line that flatters every figure. The armholes and neckline are thoughtfully finished with a beautiful and comfortable I-cord, which is conveniently created as you knit the shell—no separate attachment required!

Our unique side gussets provide gentle shaping for both the hips and bust, ensuring the perfect fit for your silhouette. This pattern is crafted using one-piece construction, knitted seamlessly in the round, with three-needle bind-off seams at the shoulders to enhance durability and aesthetics.

What I absolutely love about the Jeannee yarn is its exceptional cotton-acrylic blend. This mix offers superior shape retention compared to pure cotton, making it ideal for wear and tear, while still feeling lighter and more breathable for those warm days. Whether you're dressing up for an outdoor lunch or keeping it casual at a summer gathering, this shell is a fantastic addition to your wardrobe.

The length of the shell measures from the top of the shoulder to the bottom edge, available in sizes 23, 24, 25, and 26 inches. Get ready to create a beautiful piece that combines comfort, style, and functionality—all while enjoying the satisfaction of knitting it yourself!
