Bustier A Move was one of those designs where the name came before the idea, and I just had to create a pattern out of it. With the signature sweetheart neckline and button up front, this is a take on a bustier

Bustier A Move is worked from the top down, beginning with the bust cups and then joining for the body. The piece is worked back and forth in pattern until the desired length is reached, with the hem and neckline seamed down. Straps are picked up and worked on double pointed needles in double stockinette.
