Chicane (DK)

This versatile knitting pattern includes two stylish versions: the Chicane, designed for DK weight yarns, and the more delicate Chicane Lite, perfect for Fingering/4 ply weight yarns. Both designs feature a beautiful lacy top with trendy dolman sleeves and charming tie cord shoulders, making them an essential addition to your wardrobe.

Created to be knitted flat and from the top-down, this pattern embraces a custom-fit construction that flatters various body shapes and accommodates a wide range of yarn types. Whether you choose to sew up the shoulders for a classic appearance or use contrasting colors for the ribbing trims, the Chicane and Chicane Lite offer endless options for personalization and creativity.

Note: This top is intentionally designed to fit loosely against the body and is meant to sit gracefully on the upper or high hip. It is crucial to size the garment according to your upper hip measurements. We highly recommend measuring this area first to ensure you purchase the appropriate amount of yarn for your chosen version.

With this comprehensive knitting pattern, you'll not only create a unique and fashionable piece but also enjoy the flexibility of choosing your preferred yarn weight. Perfect for both seasoned knitters and beginners alike, the Chicane and Chicane Lite are ideal for showcasing your knits at any casual gathering or special occasion. Dive into this creative project today and knit yourself or a loved one a stunning top that’s sure to turn heads!
