Original Pattern:Razor Cami
Knitter Extraordinaire: Anna (Rav Id, Blog)
Mods: Turned this popular camisole pattern into a long sleeved tunic-style pullover. And how perfect is that little black stripe? I love the bit of contrast and interest it provides. You can duplicate her efforts by following the details on her project page, which is here.
What Makes this Awesome: I'll admit that while I have some knitted tank tops (and tube tops) in my wardrobe, I don't wear them nearly as often as I wear things with sleeves. This is a brilliant way to take a great pattern and adapt it to what you'll actually wear more often. I love the effortless, just-throw-it-on look of this sweater, and a lacy pullover is a fantastic layering piece that can be worn through a lot of seasons, depending on the fibre content and what you layer underneath.I love how pretty this looks!

I really like this Razor sweater. The Razor Cami was very popular when I stated knitting and I thought it was very pretty, but would not really wear it. I like this transformation!
i've been friends with her on ravelry for a lttle while now. her stuff is so beautiful and she is really inspiring to young knitters. her blog is really interesting too as she is spending some time studying in london at the moment.
That is just awesome. Such a good idea (especially the funky black stripe!) and it looks like a *really* wearable knit!
Ohh I love this! It is like a super adorable Charlie Brown sweater with the stripe. I've always loved that lace pattern and I'm so happy it makes such a wearable long sleeved sweater.
I really like this one, too! I love this little bit of Monday inspiration :)
How clever! I love these mods. It makes the sweater so much more wearable for me.
Isn't that girl amazing? She can make even Red Heart look fabulous. Not fair. hehe.
It is very wearable. Love it!
the modification is great, and it looks very very very very cute :)
That is a fabo mod. I know I'd never wear a knit cami, and this is the perfect way to adapt a cami pattern into something I'd actually sport :)
Very beautiful cami into a pullover. Love this stuff very much ^_^
