Close up of the flower detail, my sleeve choice and twisted collar.

I saw two anthropology tops that I liked and it inspired me to try the new techniques on a shirt of my own. I used black knit to build the tee. I like scoop necks and cap sleeves. I twisted knit to give more detail to the collar. I cut up petal peices for the flower detail and stitched each petal seperatly. I stretched elastic down the sides to make the ruching. I LOVE the way it turned out and I fill like it is a flattering look for a post pardom body!
