Discover the beauty of simplicity and elegance with our stunning knitted top pattern, designed for the modern knitter who appreciates understated style. This versatile top features a dramatic open draped neckline and beautifully ruched hemlines, making it a must-have addition to your wardrobe. Crafted from a lightweight material using fingering weight yarn, this pattern incorporates a loose gauge, resulting in a flattering and stretchy fabric that hugs your silhouette just right.
Knit in the round from the bottom up, you'll love how the ruches and hem are seamlessly created as you work your way through the pattern. Once the body of the top is complete, you’ll pick up stitches to knit the sleeves down from the armhole, utilizing short rows to ensure a perfect fit. This innovative construction method minimizes finishing tasks, allowing you to focus on the joy of knitting and wearing your creation.
