Tunic style top with lightweight semi- solid stitch pattern, in ladies’ sizes X- Small to X-Large - to fit bust sizes 72.5-115 cm (30-46”), with 2.5-5 cm (1-2”) positive ease.

The top is worked bottom up and features subtle shaping to flatter and enhance curves, with a longer length to give a streamlined appearance. It is ideal on its own for summer evenings, as a beach cover-up, or layered over a vest top for day wear.

YOU WILL NEED 1100 (1250, 1250, 1400, 1500) m double knitting or light worsted weight yarn, a 3.50 mm hook and a wool needle for neatening ends and seaming. Hook and yarn may be varied to achieve desired gauge.

GAUGE: 8sts and 5 rows to 5 cm (2”) in pattern. Instructions are given to adjust lengths in case row gauge does not match exactly.

Quantities are given for X-Small (Small, Medium, Large, X-Large) as applicable. See schematic for breakdown of finished sizes.
