Supportive and comfortable while also flattering on multiple body types, Odessa makes the perfect summer top or swimwear.

Materials needed:
Yarn 1 to 2 colors at least, (#1/#2/#3), 150-360 Meters
Hooks: 2mm, 3mm-4mm (or recommended hook for your yarn weight)
stitch markers

Pattern includes a Look-Book with testers pictures you can reference for inspiration or additional information on their measurements, type and amount of yarns used for the project.

This top is an excellent gift and a must-have summer staple for seasons to come. I’m confident you will love this pattern as much as my testers and I do. From process to published I’ve made several Odessa tops for myself and gifted 2 to friends, trust me you’ll want at least 3!
