Notes

I was happy to test this perfect top/dress!!!

My knitting had modifications:

  • more rows before plates (170);
  • more rows after plates (60);
  • in last 3 rows before decreases I knitted 10 sts on each size in garter;
  • in armholes knitted first 3 and last 3 garter sts;
  • in the back I made 7 decreases in each 8th row;
  • I had broke thread each piece and started neckband in the center of the back. CO 27 sts used broken thread also;
  • neckband decreases made in each dark purl row dec making regular intervals, but shifting them to the half rapport.

Thank Marjolein that you enabled me to knit this wonderful dress!
