Chillax Top

**Enjoy a 20% discount until the end of July 26, no code needed! <3** The Chillax Top is worked top down, starting with working in the round, the back & front are worked separately & flat. The top has saddle shoulder construction. The front is wider & shorter than the back, to create a comfortable fit. There are two options for the stitch pattern, you can either work the top in 2 x 2 broken rib or stockinette stitch. The top is designed with 0 – 5 cm / 0 – 2” of positive ease. Choose the size depending on how much of ease you want, if you’re between two sizes, I suggest to choose the smaller, since the fabric does stretch :) The purple sample is made in size 2 and the pink sample is in size 3. My bust is approx. 80 cm / 31½” and my under bust is approx. 72 cm / 23⅞”. **Sizes:** 1 (2, 3, 4) 5, 6, 7 (8, 9, 10) 11, 12, 13 (14, 15, 16) **Finished Garment’s Measurements: Neckline circumference (A):** 32.6 (35.6, 35.6, 38.5) 38.5, 38.5, 41.5 (41.5, 44.4, 44.4) 47.4, 47.4, 47.4 (50.4, 50.4, 51.9) cm 12⅞ (14, 14, 15⅛) 15⅛, 15⅛, 16⅜ (16⅜, 17½, 17½) 18⅝, 18⅝, 18⅝ (19⅞, 19⅞, 20⅜)” **Shoulder length (B):** 5.6 (6.7, 6.7, 7.8) 7.8, 7.8, 7.8 (8.9, 8.9, 8.9) 8.9, 10, 10, (10, 10, 10) cm 2¼ (2⅝, 2⅝, 3⅛) 3⅛, 3⅛. 3⅛ (3½, 3½, 3½) 3½, 3⅞, 3⅞ (3⅞, 3⅞, 3⅞)” **Front width (before underarm shaping) (C):** 24.4 (28.9, 28.9, 33.3) 33.3, 33.3, 34.8 (36.3, 37.8, 37.8) 37.8, 40.7, 40.7 (42.2, 42.2, 42.2) cm 9⅝ (11⅜, 11⅜, 13⅛) 13⅛, 13⅛, 13¼(14¼, 14⅞, 14⅞) 14⅞, 16, 16 (16⅝, 16⅝, 16⅝)” **Front length (D):** 14.9 (15.2, 15.4, 16) 16.6, 16.8, 17.4 (17.4, 17.8, 18.5) 18.8, 19.3, 19.9 (19.9, 20.4, 20.7) cm 5⅞ (6, 6⅛, 6⅜) 6½, 6⅝, 6⅞ (6⅞, 7, 7⅜) 7⅜, 7½, 7⅞ (7⅞, 8, 8⅛)” **Back width (before underarm shaping):** 22.2 (26.7, 26.7, 31.1) 31.1, 31.1, 32.6 (34, 35.6, 35.6) 35.6, 38.5, 38.5 (40, 40, 40) cm 8¾ (10½, 10½, 12¼) 12¼, 12¼, 12⅞ (13⅜, 14, 14) 14, 15⅛, 15⅛ (15¾, 15¾, 15¾)” **Back length:** 20 (20.3, 20.6, 21.1) 21.7, 21.9, 22.5 (22.5, 23, 23.6) 23.9, 24.4, 25 (25, 25.6, 25.8) cm 7⅞ (8, 8⅛, 8⅜) 8½, 8⅝, 8⅞ (8⅞, 9, 9¼) 9⅜, 9⅝, 9⅞ (9⅞, 10, 10⅛)” **Armscye circumference:** 44.5 (46.6, 47.1, 48.2) 49.4, 51.3, 52.5 (54, 56.5, 57.7) 61.2, 62.2, 63.4 (64.9, 66, 66.5) cm 17½ (18⅜, 18½, 19) 19⅜, 20⅛, 20⅝ (21¼, 22¼, 22¼) 24⅛, 24½, 25 (25½, 26, 26⅛)” **Body circumference (E):** 77 (83, 86, 91.9) 97.7, 100.7, 103.7 (109.6, 115.6, 118.5) 124.4, 130.4, 133.3 (139.3, 145.2, 151.1) cm 30⅜ (32⅝, 33⅞, 36⅛) 38½, 39⅝, 40⅞ (43⅛, 45½, 46⅝) 49, 51⅜, 52½ (54⅞, 57⅛, 59½)” **Hem length from underarm in shorter version:** 20 (20, 20, 21) 21, 22, 22 (23, 23, 23) 24, 25, 25 (26, 27, 27) cm 7⅞ (7⅞, 7⅞, 8¼) 8¼, 8⅝, 8⅝ (9, 9, 9) 9½, 9⅞, 9⅞ (10¼, 10⅝, 10⅝)” or desired length **Hem length from underarm in longer version:** 35 (35, 35, 36) 36, 37, 37 (38, 38, 38) 39, 40, 40 (41, 42, 42) cm 13¼ (13¼, 13¼, 14⅛) 14⅛, 14½, 14½ (15, 15, 15) 15⅜, 15¾, 15¾ (16⅛, 16½, 16½)” or desired length **Gauge:** 27 sts x 36 rnds = 10 x 10 cm / 4 x 4”, in 2 x 2 broken rib stitch & stockinette stitch, after blocking **Needles:** 3 mm / US 2.5 circular needles with a 60 - 80 cm / 24 - 32” cable, choose the length based on the size you make.
