INTRODUCTION
Mey Camisole is a classic timeless top with a casual feel to it. It is first worked from the middle and upwards. The front and back pieces are shaped with decreases. The rest of the top is then worked from the middle and down finishing with a split in each side. At last stitches are picked up along the arm holes and these are worked back and forth in rib and shaped with increases. For the neckline, stitches are picked up along the front-, back,- and sleeve edges while additional stitches are cast on to join the pieces together.
