Estiu top
The Estiu top is an oversized, timeless summer design featuring stripes. It is worked bottom up and comes with two lengths, you need to decide if you want a cropped or full length version before you start to shape the shoulders. It is knitted flat, back and forth with shaped armholes and neck. The back and front are joined using mattress stitch on both sides and the shoulders are grafted with Kitchener stitch. It is finished by picking up stitches for the neckband and armholes with a thin 1x1 rib and bind off with Italian bind off technique for a neat finish. (Instructions to knit in the round included)
