Welcome Whole Wheat!
Whole Wheat has a bottom-up construction and it is knit in the round. It is based on repetitions of a very easy-to-memorize lace pattern and ends with a boatneck!

The pattern is tech-edited and test knitted, except from the following sizes: 46”, 52”, 56”, 60”, 62”.
It has written instructions separate for each size and charts. It is divided in 2 pdfs, one for sizes S-XL and the other for 2XL-5XL.

Finished bust circumference:
S-XL:
77 (84, 90, 97, 103, 110, 116) cm /
30.25 (33, 35.5, 38, 40.5, 43.25, 48.5)”
2XL-5XL:
123 (129, 135, 142, 148, 155, 161) cm /
48.5 (50.75, 53, 56, 58.5, 61, 63.5)” recommended to be worn without ease. A bit of positive ease at the bust will also work fine. If you do not know which size to choose, go 1 size up! You decide the final fit of your garment, if you like it with more negative/positive or zero ease!

Sample top is knitted in the colourway Mustard Yellow. Model wears a Size 3 (90 cm/35.5 inch) with 0 ease.
