Carefully placed eyelets create a chequerboard effect across the chest of this cute sleeveless top, which also features a loose body that is gently gathered just below the armhole. Especially for little ones, it features functional buttons along the left shoulder that could also be a decorative touch. The front and back are worked flat from the bottom up, with stitches picked up from the cast off edges to create the neck, button and sleeve bands.
