| Job type | Test knit |
| Description | Circle Dance is knit bottom up in the round. It has garter stitch welts on the body and the sleeves. The yoke has rings of contrasting colored flat baubles that are knit with Tree Increases and Multiple slipped stitch decreases like continuous cables, so they look very round. After a few rounds of back ground color, the dots are re-attached. The neckline has a notched colar, also in garter stitch. |

I will try to answer all questions within a day, I will thank you a lot. There will be a pattern code, and you will have first dibs on this pattern. You are doing me a favor, and it's not terribly balanced. I will try to sprinkle what glamour glitter I can, but you are the rock stars. |
