The Irregular Rib Top is a slim fit top with a square neckline and I-cord edges.

I’m wearing size 2 in all the photos.

SIZES: 1 (2) 3 (4) 5 (6) 7

CORRESPONDS TO BUST CIRCUMFERENCE IN CM: 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-105 (105-115) 115-130

NEGATIVE EASE: I recommend a negative ease of about 10 to 20 cm. I’m wearing a size 2 in the photos, and the top has a negative ease of 20 cm. If you are in between sizes, choose the smaller size as the rib will stretch and adapt to your body.

BUST CIRCUMFERENCE OF TOP IN CM: approx. 65 (70) 75 (80) 85 (95) 105

SUGGESTED NEEDLES: 2,5 mm (60, 80 eller 100 cm) circular needles x 2 (or a 2,5 mm double pointed needle with a piece of stitch wire attached to one end).

GAUGE: rib pattern, blocked (flattened, not stretched): 28 sts = 10 cm

MATERIAL SUGGESTION
150 (200) 200 (250) 250 (300) 300 g of Cotton-Cashmere
from katia yarns (50 g = 155 m)

I recommend using a yarn that contains cotton,
linen, silk, bamboo or viscose.
