Passap machine knitting instructions for a sleeveless buttoned top. 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 5 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.

A thin cord is knit and sewn on to make loops for the buttons.

Materials:

• 4½ oz. “medium synthetic yarn” (440m per 100g)
• 5 buttons

Test square
In stocking stitch: 100 sts = 32.5 cm, 100 rows = 22 cm
