Naomi Top - digital knitting pattern (PDF)

The Naomi Top is a fitted top using simple techniques and suited for beginners. It is made in the round from the bottom up in 4x2 ribbing.

Gauge (after blocking): 10 x 10cm/4” x 4” = 21sts x 38 rows in 4x2 ribbing.
Do not forget making a gauge swatch and blocking it before knitting this top - otherwise you risk making the wrong size for you.

Sizing: 4 sizes are included in the pattern for now. The sizes XS (S) M (L) fit measurements 79-83 (84-89) 90-94 (95-99)cm/31”-32,5” (33”-35”) 35,5”-37” (37,5”-39”). To determine your size, measure the circumference of your chest or the widest part of your upper body.

The Top is meant to be fitted with a negative ease of about 20cm/8”.

Circumference of the finished top: 60 (64) 70 (76)cm/23,5” (25”) 27,5” (30”)
Length of the finished top: 44 (47) 48 (50)cm/17” (18,5”) 19” (19,5”)

Materials:
Needles: 3,5mm (US 4) circular knitting needles, 40-60cm length
Blunt tapestry needle
Scissors
Yarn (estimation): 2 (3) 4 (5) skeins of Lana Grossa Elastico – 96% cotton, 4% Polyester (160m/175 yds per 50g skein). The brown top is knitted in the color 137. You can use any other yarn that fits the gauge, however I recommend using a cotton with a bit of elasticity (polyester).

The pattern includes only 4 sizes for now as I was not able to find testers for sizes upwards of 99cm/39”. If you would like to knit this top and are not included in the size range, message me on instagram @marielenatricot or through e-mail: marielenatricot@gmail.com and I will send you the pattern in your size for free. I would love to be able to update the pattern to be more size inclusive!
