This top is worked seamlessly from the top down. The back neck is shaped using short rows to create a comfortable, well-balanced fit and a gently raised neckline. The yoke is then worked in the round with raglan increases. Once the desired yoke depth is reached, the sleeves are separated and the body is continued in the round. Sleeves are worked in the round to the cuffs and finished with ribbing. Lastly stitches are then picked up along each side of the middle lace panel to knit the decorative front ruffles.

Please note that:
1- Any change in stitch / row gauge or switching to yarn of different composition might not give you the same finished measurements or finished look.

2- The pattern is only available in English, and it is not guaranteed that the pattern would be clear if it was translated using translating applications or Google!
