Darlene Top
This listing is for a digital download of the Darlene Top Knitting Pattern.
The Darlene Top is an elegant, off-shoulder sweater designed to be both cozy and flattering. Its ribbed body and thoughtfully placed shaping create a beautiful, figure-enhancing fit while ensuring maximum comfort. Knit seamlessly in the round from the bottom up, the pattern begins with gentle shaping through the hips, waist, and torso, followed by more structured shoulders and fitted sleeves for a polished look.
To ensure the perfect fit, start by knitting a gauge swatch to determine the correct needle size. Achieving gauge in both width and height is essential for the top to meet the precise measurements listed in the pattern.
