Fluido is an easy pattern for a loose-fitting, boxy top, designed for sport weight linen yarn or similar plant-based yarns with drape. Larger needles than usual and cleverly placed yarn-overs create a flowing cascade of droplet-shaped eyelets. It is knitted bottom up in 2 pieces which are then joined together at the shoulders and with a short side seam.
Needles: 4.5mm (US 7), fine-pointed recommended.
Gauge: 21/22 stitches and 22 rows in stocking stitch to 10cm (4”).
