Simple Tunic
designed by Kim Guzman
Technique: Regular Crochet
Sizes available: Small-3X
Although this pattern is sized to 3X, please be aware that the sleeves are lantern style sleeves.
This means that the sleeves go straight down to the wrist. The circumference around the bicep is close to the same as the circumference around the wrist.
Although it may not be as apparent in the first 3 or 4 sizes, it will become apparent in the larger sizes. If you do not care for lantern style sleeves, you may want to make alterations to the pattern when stitching it up.
