Devon Top

This is a ribbed top with a tight fit around the bust and waist, including button details on the side and sleeves. The Devon Top is worked top down in 2x2 rib, utilizing raglan increases. Once the length reaches under your bust, the work is split under one armpit, where you will begin to work flat, adding buttonholes periodically as you move down. After casting off the bottom, you will pick up the sleeve stitches and knit to your desired sleeve length. Size/Gauge Please note that this is a self-drafting GUIDE and not a traditional pattern. This means that you will be able to knit the Devon Top to fit your exact measurements. Additionally this means that you can knit the top in any yarn and any needle size you choose. Tools: Circular needles with 40 cm (16 in) length cord — needle size will depend on your yarn choice Barber cords or scrap yarn for trying on and putting the sleeves on hold Tapestry needle for weaving in ends and sewing on buttons Regular and removable stitch markers Crochet hook Buttons (I recommend 1-2mm in diameter)
