Piu Top is a ribbed top that is worked from the top down in 3 x 2 rib pattern (k3, p2). Short rows are worked to shape the back of the neckline before increases are worked for the shoulders. Thereafter, the front and back sections are worked separately before being joined to work the rest of the body in the round on the same needle.

Sizes 1 (2) 3 (4) 5 (6) 7 (8) correspond to a chest circumference of approx. 85 (90) 95 (100) 110 (120) 130 (140) cm. The measurements given on the first page of the pattern are for the finished garment, and the top is intended to have approx. 13-16 cm of positive ease. Make a swatch to find the needle size that gives you the correct gauge. See recommended video tutorials and size guide on www.novemberknits.com.
