Pool Top

The Pool Top is a fitted summer top that is super fun and quick to knit. It is worked in one piece, top down and in the round, with a flattering waist panel and (s-shape) raglan shaping. The pattern is fairly beginner-friendly. You will need to knit, purl, increase, decrease, and read instructions carefully. **This pattern has been tested and professionally tech edited.** **Sizing:** Sizes: 1 (2) 3 (4) 5 (6) 7 (8) 9 Recommended for: Bust circumference: 70-75 (80-85) 90-95 (100-105) 110-115 (120-125) 130-135 (140-145) 150-155 cm Finished measurements are provided in the pattern.
