“Woot” to this contemporary knitted top that is relaxed in style~
This top looks and feels great knitted in a cool to the touch linen/viscose yarn which makes this project your “go to” piece to wear for the season.
Pattern is fully written for sizes S / M / L / XL / XXL. Bust sizes: 34/36”, / 38/40/42/44"/ 46/48", 50/52".
NOTE: The top has a positive ease of 12” and meant to drape loosely as shown in the blue version. The sides are only seamed for about 2 inches. Woot is more of a cover up, not a sweater, though can be adapted easily if you don't want so much drape by knitting a smaller size or using a smaller needle. You can also seam the sides completely for more of a sweater. Knitted with yarn held double throughout~
This project is suitable for the advanced beginner. Knitted in Garter and Stockinette stitch with a Stitch Pattern Repeat of 6 rows for featured front and back interest.
