Passap machine knitting instructions for a sleeveless top with a diamond cut-out in the front. The “peep hole” is knit with short rows.

The pattern specifies that the purlside is to be used outwards. The bands for the armholes and front edges are knitted at the same time as the bodice pieces by transferring 3 stitches to the opposite bed, shaping is then done on both beds. The back neck band is a stocking stitch extension of the front pieces.

Materials:
* 4½ oz. “medium synthetic yarn” (440m per 100g)

Test square
In stocking stitch: 100 sts =33 cm, 100 rows = 21 cm
