Spooky vibes aren’t just for cooler days! Sanderson is warm-weather crop top worked in multiple pieces and in multiple directions. So that an elastic casings can easily be made at both the waist and shoulders, the body is worked from the waist up in one piece with waist shaping, and the ruffle is knit from the top down with a crocheted edging. I-cord straps are knit separately as well. When all of the components are completed, the shoulder ruffle is sewn to the body of the top, and straps are attached to both pieces. For the best fit, choose a size with 0-3 in / 0-8 cm of negative ease through the bust.

The stitch pattern comes in both written and charted format.
