EVERYDAY_LOOP_TOP

EVERYDAY_LOOP_TOP
The top is worked from top to bottom. The piece begins with the neckband, then the front and back pieces are worked individually back and forth, before joining both pieces and working the body in the round.
Ribbing panels start at the neckband and flow along the armholes, continuing down the body. Along the way, decreases and increases are worked, which gradually shifts the ribbing panels towards the front piece, enhancing the top’s feminine silhouette.
The top is worked in one piece, and both the front and back pieces, body and edges are therefore entirely assembly-free.
