The Marjorie Camisole is an airy summer top with delicate, special details. It is worked top down, giving you the possibility to choose your perfect length. In addition, you can choose between twisted I-cord straps or a bra-friendlier strap option, as well as between two back variants. The pattern includes instructions for an open back with overlapping back panels or a closed back. In total, Marjorie offers you four different variants so that, hopefully, everybody can find their perfect match.

Sizing
The instructions come in 10 sizes.
After finishing the garment, sizes 1 (2) 3 (4) 5 (6) 7 (8) 9 (10) have a finished bust circumference of 84 (91) 95 (100) 105 (111) 117 (123) 129 (136) cm. In contrast to animal fibers, the recommended yarn does not have any memory and will likely grow some more with wearing the garment. Hence, it is recommended to work the pattern with a very small amount of positive ease so that the top can drape prettily but does not get too big.
Because of the features of the recommended yarn, the different sizes are recommended for a bust circumference of 80 – 84 (84 – 90) 90 – 95 (95 – 100) 100 – 105 (105 – 111) 111 – 117 (117 – 123) 123 – 129 (129 – 136) cm.

Yarn
100 (100) 150 (150) 150 (150) 200 (200) 250 (250) g Tynn Line by Sandnes Garn (Meterage: 220 m / 50 g)
Other lovely alternatives are Cotton Merino by Knitting for Olive or Tussah Tweed by BC Garn.

For all of the pictured versions I used Sandnes Garn Tynn Line, in the colors Kitt (natural), Sort (black) and Green Tee (green).

Needles
You will need a 3 mm circular needle or another needle size to best fit the provided gauge.

General Note: As a “one-woman-show” I translated this pattern myself. As a native German grammar mistakes in the English pattern can occur. In the following weeks I will have someone reed through the English pattern again, an update will be sent out then.
The pattern has been test knitted, so you should be good to go - if you have any questions or problems, please contact me at quasigerade@web.de - Thank you so much for your support!

Happy Knitting!
