Notes

I have had to make adaptations to the pattern as Malabrigo Mechita is a heavier weight than the pattern calls for, but, I just HAD to use the Mechita for this top. <3

Pattern requires: gauge 29 -33, Mechita = gauge 26-30

C/O 112 w/US sz2 increase to 128 stitches w/US sz1.

All said and done I could have kept with the exact pattern using the Malabrigo Mechita. I actually finished the top in August. I love it, alone, or layered with a scoop-neck top.
