Sea Loop Top

**COMING SOON translated to French** **SEA_LOOP_TOP** is knit with yarn that has a wavy texture. This top has narrow straps and a loose silhouette. Sea_loop_top is worked from the top to bottom. First, stitches are cast on for the front, which is worked back and forth with increases to shape the armholes. Afterwards, stitches are cast on for the back, and the body is worked in the round while also making increases to create width in the body. Finally, i-cord straps are made. **Sizes_** XS (S) M (L) XL (XXL) **Measurements_** Width_ 79 (84) 89 (94) 101 (108) cm, measured under the armhole. Length_ 32 (32) 32 (37) 37 (37) cm, measured from the back. I recommend knitting a size with a circumference that is 1-7 cm less than your own bust circumference. The top shown in the pattern is size S with -2 cm negative ease. **Materials_** **Striped version:** Color A_ 1 strand Cotton Waves from Gepard 50 g / 60 m. 250 (250) 300 (300) 350 (400) g.
