My first Big Chain top turned out way too large, therefore I decided to start over again, opting for the smallest size and for smaller needles.

I am very happy with how it has turned out. It fits well, is elegant and the yarn (one of my favourite yarns for summer garments) is a pleasure to knit with. The collar is a real eye catcher and makes this top so special.

This is one of those pieces that I wouldn’t mind knitting again and again, in different colours. I am planning to knit the next one very soon. Maybe using 4 mm needles for the collar (only for the collar) to make it a bit wider.

Excellent, very clearly written pattern.
