Notes

Sample for knitwit mag!
I made a medium, and this is actually is the same piece as on the magazine’s model, but I am wearing it without ease. So go down one size, or measure the fullest part of your bust and match it to the final top measurements to get one that’s fitted. The cotton yarn is stretchy, including the cabled portion once the dropped columns are created :)

Body - 281g
Fringe - 50g, trimmed to 36g
Final - 317g

I suggest wearing a racerback bra (with X straps, if your bra is convertible) for those with a larger bust, like me, who can’t go outside without wearing a bra. It’s completely hidden by the top!
