Pay what works:

Knitting is not only a creative and relaxing occupation, in times as these it also is invaluable as a sort of therapy, an opportunity to make enriching encounters and come together with other knitters. Last but not least, it’s a wonderful way to make your own sustainable wardrobe.

In order to make my knitting patterns accessible to everyone, regardless of their financial situation, I now offer a “Pay What Works” scheme.

Description
The Cassis sleeveless top is knit from the bottom up in the round, with a braid pattern in the center front and back all the way up until the armhole. From that point on, front and back are worked separately, while continuing an alternated form of the braid pattern, with only one twist symmetric to the other side of the neckline. The straps are formed by a twisted cable and sewn onto the corresponding back strap with Kitchener stitch. The armhole edges are formed with an ongoing i-cord. The gauge indicated in the pattern is a guideline, but can divert by a few stitches without affecting too much the pattern and shape. The form is fitted, but the textures used tend to ease up after washing, making it wider.
