The Seren Summer top is worked bottom up in the round with no seams & no sewing at all! The length is customisable & the design looks great cropped or longer length. It is designed with negative ease at the bust creating a natural taper at the waist for a flattering shape. The wide neckline is also customisable & can be made to sit just on or off the shoulder, & there are three sleeve options to choose from.

The pattern has been thoroughly tested by a large group of fabulous testers who have tested every size to ensure accuracy & clarity. As well as the written pattern, I have added photos & videos in case you need any clarification or come across stitches that are new to you. It’s really important to me that you have a pattern you love. Please reach out to me if you have any issues.
