Composition: This camisole is worked top down flat with front and back left/right pieces. It is then joined together in the round. Increases are made after the waist portion to create ruffles. You may adjust the length of the garment while knitting to suit your body.

Measurements:
This garment is knitted with 0-2.5 cm (0-1 inches) of negative ease and is intended to fit real bust circumference measurements of 71-76, 81-86, 91.5-96.5, (101.5-106.5, 111.5-117, 122-127), 132-137, 142-147, 152-158 cm OR 28-30”, 32-34”, 36-38”, (40-42”, 44-46”, 48-50”), 52-54”, 56-58”, 60-62”. Garment length is customizable as it is knitted top down.

Size Guide:
If you would like your top to be form fitting, I would recommend sticking with your actual bust size. Sizing up will result in a looser fit. If you are in between sizes, choose the smaller size because ribbing will stretch overtime.

Needle sizes you need:
-3.5mm (US 4) circular (80cm)
-6.5mm (US 10.5) circular (80-100cm)
-Cable needle OR one double pointed needle
Note: There are different ways to knit cables with and without needles, so cable needles may be optional depending on your preferred method.

Gauge: 24 sts X 32 rows in 2x2 ribbing (lightly stretched) with 3.5mm needles for a 4”x 4” (10cm x 10cm) swatch.
Gauge unstretched before blocking is 28 sts x 32 rows
