Notes

3.75mm 21s 32r = 10cm knit in round & blocked.

Knit as per pattern.

Wet blocked but before it dried I decided to put it in the dryer until almost dry. It came out beautifully even and had also lengthened a little.

UPDATE:
25 Dec 2023
Having lost ~20kgs this top is now too big, probably made worse by the dropping of the linen. Therefore I have now frogged this and will re-knit in the same pattern but a smaller size!
Mod: knit extra 2 rows inch Inc for back and front before dividing for armholes.

Finished! Again blush Much better fit, aimed for a more fitted top rather than over-size, and there is enough yarn left over to knit a baby dress.
