The Petal Drop Camisole is worked bottom up in an easy ribbed lace stitch. Increases are worked to shape the waist, and the stitches are split below the armholes to knit the front and back panels separately. Stitches are cast off at varying rates to create a pretty curved neckline, and the whole top is finished with i-cord details.

Sizes: (A, B, C) (D, E, F) (G, H, I)
The sizes are designed to fit a natural bust measurement of (75, 85, 95) (105, 115, 125) (135, 145, 155) cm with around 6cm of negative ease.

Needles: 3mm circular needles (60 or 80cm lengths) for the ribbed lace, 2.5mm circular needles (60 or 80cm lengths) for the i-cord.

Gauge: 27 stitches x 40 rows per 10cm in lace rib on 3mm needles.

Yarn: Merino by Knitting for Olive
(2, 3, 3) (3, 4, 4) (5, 5, 5) skeins
Alternatively substitute this yarn suggestion for your preferred fingering-weight yarn that meets gauge. It will require approximately (480, 550, 640) (730, 830, 930) (1000, 1100, 1210) m in total.
The Knitting for Olive Pure Silk and Cotton Merino will also work well.
