Top Mercedes
DESCRIPTION
The MERCEDES TOP is a summer top, knitted with Rowan’s
Summerlite DK yarn (the model’s original color is no. 479), a very soft Egyptian cotton with great stitch definition.
As it is knitted with needles bigger than recommended, the texture of the garment is more fluid and lighter. The Top has a positive ease of 5 cm 2 inches. It is a seamless raglan shape, top down, knitted in round, with a pattern made up of 7 rows in Knit and 1 in Purl, which are repeated throughout its construction. German short rows are also worked on the back of the piece, giving it an asymmetrical front and back.
