This product is a knitting pattern that provides only the instructions to create the item—it does not include a finished garment. Please read the full description. The pattern may include additional instructions for design variations.
A cool, lightweight top in 10 sizes (XXS to L and 1X to 5X) to knit sleeveless or with sleeves cuffed below the elbow. Top is fitted at the bust, falling away from the body below with gentle A-line shaping to a deep garter stitch hem.
Neck is finished with a relaxed garter stitch band that tips slightly forward for dimension; neck and sleeve finishes may be striped if desired. Knit in a fresh, plant-based blend for an airy fabric that will take you from spring through the hottest summer days and into fall; also pairs well with jackets for work or dressier events.
