Back to the Future- Shoulders
Sometimes I like to re-visit my older styles and update them with a little tweak.
Since shoulders are sneaking back into fashion, I decided to give Myrna’s sleeves a little facelift and restore the gathered sleeve that this 40′s inspired beauty came with originally. So, I re-knitted her with more shoulder interest and even wrote the instructions to include sewn in tulle sleeve heads to be sewn in afterward for supporting their shape.
Purists might actually want to add shoulder pads for the full 40′s splendor.
