This summer top is knitted in a lace and mock cable pattern using a bamboo/wool mix yarn. To create a more fitted shape I used a change of needle size for the waist shaping rather than decreases and increases.

The extra fabric for the puff sleeve is added after the cuff is knitted by casting off a small section of stitches and then casting on the extra stitches for the puff sleeve.

all the edges are finished with garter stitch.
