Audrey's Braids
Audrey’s Braids is a flattering boatneck top inspired by the elegant Audrey Hepburn. Construction is simpler than it looks. There is no neck or shoulder shaping - precise fit is determined by the width of the shoulder seams. Waist shaping is built in thanks to very deep cabled ribbing, and attached i-cord edging on the armholes means minimal finishing. It’s light enough for warmer weather and thin enough to layer without bulk when the weather turns cool.
The cable pattern is included in both charted and written form. Photos show size 42” / 107 cm worn with 1” positive ease. The colorway is “718 Seafoam Green.”
Techniques: Cables, attached I-cord.
Notions: Stitch markers, cable needle, yarn needle for weaving in ends.
