Construction
The Nolatop is knitted top down. First, the back is knitted in stockinette stitch with increases, followed by the front in the same manner. Both parts are joined together in the round and are connected to each other. The body is then knitted in the round. Stitches are picked up along the back and front while simultaneously casting on new stitches to form the straps. This way, the front and back are connected at the same time. The straps are knitted in stockinette stitch. Stitches are picked up along the neckline, and the neckband is also knitted in stockinette stitch.

Choose the size according to the following bust circumferences: 80-85 | 85-90 | 90-95 | 95-100 | 100-110 | 110-120 | 120-130 | 130-140 | 140-150 cm.
