DESCRIPTION
Ready for your next favourite summer knit? Crops are definitely in style, and this ribbed crop top has the cutest sweetheart neckline that makes it a winner in any wardrobe. Worried that the sweetheart neckline will be hard? Don’t! It’s actually a simple pinch and cinch that ramps up the glam factor.

This pattern is written in 9 sizes, XS (S, M, L, XL) (2XL, 3XL, 4XL, 5XL) and has 14-16 inches of negative ease, meaning it will be aform fitting top. You are welcome to block it larger or to your preference.

How to choose your size: Find your bust measurements below. Negative ease is built into the pattern, meaning final measurements are 14-16” subtracted from that number.

Knit in the round, seamless.
