Princess Wrap Top- Is it easier to sew or more flattering to wear? That is what you will be asking yourself after you have made a dozen of these tops! This pullover, wrap top âwrapsâ high on the bustline and flatters the waistline with gathers and shaping.

My Go-to Knit Top
I've only sewn the Princess Wrap but it is my go-to knit top. It's flattering, comfortable, and has a more polished appearance than a t-style shirt. I especially like how easy it is to use a variety of finishes on the neckline edge, since you do not have to worry about completing a circle - the ends are serged/sewn into the princess seams. Really a lovely design.
