Summer Wheat has a bottom-up construction and it is knit in the round. It is based on repetitions of a very easy-to-memorize lace pattern!

Pattern Construction
This top starts with a few rows of garter stitch and then continues with a repetition of the lace pattern until you reach the armholes. You knit in the round all the way until that point.
Once reaching the bottom of the armholes, you start decreasing in order to create the straps.
You can knit it as long as you want!! This applies to the body and the straps! The pattern has been tech-edited and test knitted. It contains written instructions and charts.
If you do not know which size to choose, go 1 size up!
