Tillandsia

This swingy, slightly cropped spring top skims the body with A-line shaping. Knit from the top down with yoke and then raglan increases and trimmed with deep lace and texture borders, it’s easy knitting with a bit of concentration required at the end.
Sized to fit with 1 to 6 inches of positive ease at the bust - depending on your personal preference. Lighter colored top is shown modeled with about 8” of ease (about 2” more than recommended) and the dark version is worn with 2” of ease.
All border stitch patterns are both charted and written.
Skills required
Long-tail cast-on
German short rows (to raise back of neck)
Increasing
Backwards-loop cast on
Double yarn overs and working into both loops
