Seashell Top

Seashell Top is a sleeveless top. Work the front and back pieces separately from the bottom up, then seam them together. Finish with crocheted neckline and armholes. • The main seashell motif on the front panel is a non-repeating pattern. For easy reference, the front panel is shown entirely with chart instructions. The back panel and neckline sections include both written and chart instructions for your convenience. • Due to the size of the seashell motif, this pattern is available in three sizes only. You may adjust your needle size and gauge to customize the finished measurements. • This pattern contains multiple pages. Chart pages for each size are listed below: Size S: Pages 11–14 ； Size M: Pages 15–18 ；Size L: Pages 19–22 ； Neckline : Pages 23–24. Feel free to print only the pages corresponding to your chosen size. • Stitch markers in contrasting colours are used to highlight lace details on the charts. Please work the entire garment with a single yarn colour. **Sizes：**S（M）L **Measurements：**chest circumferences （90）98（104） cm；waist circumferences （72）78（85）cm；length（42）45）（50）cm **Yarn：** Light fingering weight, 100 g / 500 m per skein， （135）150（185）g Recommended yarn: Jiayin by Huiguixian (85% cotton, 15% silk), worked single-ply. **Gauge：** Ribbing (US 2-2.75 mm needles): 30 sts × 50 rows = 10 cm × 10 cm Main part (US21/2 -3.0 mm needles): 29 sts × 40 rows = 10 cm × 10 cm **Suggested Needles &Notions**： Knitting needles: US 2-2.75 mm needles ； US21/2 -3.0 mm needles Crochet hook: 2.3 mm (3/0) Tapestry needle, stitch holders / waste yarn, stitch markers
