The Josephine Light is a sock/fingering weight version of my very first design, the Josephine Crop top. The lightweight yarn creates a beautiful drape and when paired with the fun adjustable shoulder straps, playful texture and simple scalloped eyelet hem, it creates a classic wardrobe staple you’ll be reaching for all season long!

This garment is worked top down with a unique, seamless construction: four triangles are worked separately and then joined together to work the body in turned rounds. The final step includes neckline finishing and creation of the shoulder ties.

This pattern is size inclusive and written in nine sizes, to fit a bust of:
XS (28-30”)/71-76cm
S (32-34”)/81-86cm
M (36-38”)/91-96cm
