Try it with the Gelato Tunic by Amy Christoffers. The side panels create a slimming effect. This tunic would look great with leggings or jeans or dressed up with a pencil skirt. And it's all Garter Stitch, so it's super easy!

HOLIDAY COUNTDOWN!

The Tip Jar
You can easily customize the tip of your wooden or bamboo needles. Just file them to shape with a nail file! Start with a coarse emery board to reshape, then smooth with a fine-grit file, and use a buffer for a final smoothing. Finish with a bit of beeswax or paste wax and you're good to go! (You can use the same method to fix a rough spot.)
