What’s better than 1 pattern? 1 pattern with multiple customisable options within! Whether you’re a sleeveless or puff sleeve kinda person there’s an option for you. If you’re a sleeveless fan you have two options to finish the armhole, either clean or a super cute picot option. If you pick the sleeve you have a pretty puff sleeve which is elasticated with a beautiful picot frill. This top can also be worn with the ties at the front or the back so you can really make this design your own! This top has an amazing picot hem frill, with a triple tie front (or back) makes this top adjustable.

These are just suggested needle sizes you may need to change sizes if you knit tighter/looser.

Note: if you are between sizes, or if you are at the larger side of the size and want a more relaxed fit size up, this will make it less revealing if the ties are warn at the front. This has 3 cm positive ease - 3cm negative ease.
