Designer Note
This summer top is designed for everyday wear. It’s light and breezy, while still providing appropriate coverage.

To begin, you will work the front and back panels separately, starting at the top and then join them in the round at the armholes.

The bottom hem is folded neatly for a clean and simple finish.

You have the flexibility to adjust the length of the sleeves to your liking. The sample is a short-sleeved version, but you can lengthen them to your desired length.

Keep in mind that if you decide to make longer sleeves, you
will need additional yardage.

Unlike most garments that are made solely with either knitting or crocheting, this top combines both techniques. The result is a
unique look that will appeal to both knitters and crocheters.

This top has an oversized fit and should be worn with at least 6 inches or 15 centimeters of positive ease for a loose and comfortable look. Enjoy!
