With a country-chic and carefree vibe, the Belle Babydoll Top is a relaxed fit sweater that is flattering on all body types. A fitted raglan empire waist shapes around the bust then fans out into a classic baby doll fit. The sleeves are a straight style above the elbow then bell in the same flare as the babydoll waist, and the neckline has a relaxed henley collar.

This intermediate knit requires knowledge of knitting flat and in the round, knitting top down (which includes increasing, knitting front and back and making leaning stitches), separating sleeves, picking up stitches, ribbing and basic stockinette stitch.

Written row-by-row with color coded sizes between US Women’s XS-5XL, this pattern also features materials list, abbreviations, gauge, stitch explanation, diagram/schematic, alternatives, photos and tips.
