The Aurora Top

The Aurora Top is a 90s inspired, made to measure pattern that perfectly captures the essence of a witchy autumn. This pattern's unique ribbed bust allows for a fitted yet opaque appearance, while the lace on the body and sleeves gives an extra flowy and airy addition, making it a perfect subverted basic. It works in front and back panels for the bust, and in the round for the subsequent lace and sleeves. This pattern is intermediate level, and includes a video aid link for the lace portion! Materials: Dk weight yarn or one that meets gauge, (examples photos use WAK baby alpaca and berroco vintage DK), a 2.75 and 3mm hook, scissors, measuring tape, stitch marker, darning needle This pattern is made to measure, below is the recommended yardage per size. Please note that yardage can vary based on various factors such as tension, sleeve width/length, and extended bust coverage. It is recommended to use a wool, merino, alpaca, blend, etc to allow proper stretch. If you wish to sub cotton, please take note of the elasticity and stretch of the yarn, as it will have less give than the other fibers.
