Great Lakes Top
Sleeveless top is worked from bottom up. Ease 10-12 cm.
I used a combination of stockinette stitches for main colour and changing different patterns for contrast colour.
I used 2 contrast colour yarn; you can use one or multiple contrast colours with the same excellent results.
At the centre of the front and back switch the yarn from main colour to contrast colour or from contrast colour to main colour using intarsia technique. I have chosen to add glitter thread to some of the contrast colour stripes knitted in stockinette, optional.
If you prefer to measure gauge in stockinette sts, it is 22 sts and 27 rows in 4” (10 cm).
Bust 41” (44, 47, 49.5, 52.5, 55)/ 104.5 cm (112, 120, 126, 133.5, 140).
Length 20” (21, 21.5, 22, 23, 23.5)/ 51 cm (53, 55, 56.5, 58, 59.5) without counting ribbing at the bottom. Depending on your preference you can knit back ribbing the same length as a front (20 rows) and sew them together. I have chosen to make the back ribbing 8 rows longer than the front and leave them not sewed.
