Offered not only in 2 stitch patterns, but also in 2 sleeve options, this 3/4-sleeve top designed in Summer Linen DK is ready for the warmer weather. The extended ribbing at the cuffs and hem create waist-shaping without having to worry about the placing of increases or decreases. Photographic diagrams are included on creating the buttonholes for the stocking stitch top’s sleeves.
