Ringo Top

The Cabled Cami is a fun cotton camisole featuring a repeating cable motif, square neckline, and fitted silhouette. Perfect on its own for summer or layered during transitional seasons, it’s worked bottom-up in the round with a long ribbed hem, then transitions into an all-over cable pattern. After shaping the armholes, the front and back are worked flat, with straps knit individually and seamed together. Finally, i-cord edging adds a clean, professional finish around the neckline and armholes. Designed with approximately 4-6 inches /10-15 cm of negative ease for a body-hugging fit. The ribbed and cabled design allows for more flexibility and stretch in the fabric so this may seem like more negative ease than you are used to. **Difficulty Level:** Intermediate / Advanced **Sizing:** This top is designed to fit with negative ease for actual bust measurements of 28-30 in / 71-76 cm (32-34 in / 81-86 cm) 36-38 in / 91.5 -96.5 cm, 40-42 in / 101.5-106.5 cm (44-46 in / 111.5-117 cm) 48-50 in / 122-127 cm, 52-54 in / 132-137 cm (56-58 in / 142-147 cm) 60-62 in / 152-158 cm To help you choose your size accurately, the finished bust measurements by size are as follows: 25 in / 64 cm (28 in / 72 cm) 33 in / 84 cm, 37 in / 96 cm (41 in / 104 cm) 46 in / 116 cm, 50 in / 128 cm (55 in / 140 cm) 58 in / 148 cm **Materials Needed:** Yarn: 525 y / 480 m (612 y / 560 m) 742 y / 678 m, 892 y / 815 m (1015 y / 928 m) 1162 y / 1062 m, 1323 y / 1209 m (1466 y / 1340 m) 1603 y / 1465 m Drops Safran (100% cotton; 174 yd/160 m per 50g skein) or similar weight yarn Needles: US 2 (2.75 mm) circular needles with a 16” or 24” cord, or size needed to obtain gauge.
