This easy to wear top is created starting at the neckline shaping, before it is joined and worked in the round. The beautiful texture created with the Lemon Peel stitch lives perfectly alongside a simple eyelet detail at the bottom hem and delicate tie straps at the shoulders.

This pattern is written for sizes XS-2XL to accommodate bust sizes 28”-48” with a relaxed fit but can easily be worked to fit sizes outside this range, notes are included to guide you with this modification.

Any worsted weight yarn, or even a heavier DK, would work fine, but I do recommend a cotton or other plant fiber to keep the fabric breathable. All sizes tested (up to 2XL) used less than two cones of suggested yarn.
