Kelso Top

Kelso Top is a simple, elegant design with a ribbed detail down each side of the body and clean rolled edging. Subtle shaping through well-placed increases and decreases elevate the drape and fit on the upper portion of the top. First, the back is knitted back and forth with increases to shape the shoulders. Stitches are then picked up along the back to form each shoulder whilst shaping the neck. The fronts and back are joined, and stitches cast on for the underarms. The body is then knit in the round. Finally, stitches are picked up along the armholes and neck edge and worked in stockinette stitch. **Sizes:** 1 (2, 3, 4, 5) (6, 7, 8, 9) 10, 11 Sizes 1 (2, 3, 4, 5) (6, 7, 8, 9) 10, 11 are intended to fit an approximate actual bust circumference of 75 (80, 85, 90, 95) (100, 110, 120, 130) 140, 150 cm. **Bust circumference of finished garment:** 83 (87, 93, 97, 103) (107, 117, 127, 137) 147, 157 cm **Recommended length of finished garment:** 51.5 (52, 53, 53, 53.5) (53.5, 55, 56, 57) 57.5, 58 cm (measured from mid-back cast-on edge) **Yoke depth:** 21 (21.5, 22.5, 22.5, 23) (23, 24.5, 25.5, 26.5) 27, 27.5 cm (measured from mid-back cast-on edge to underarm cast-on edge) **Armhole circumference:** 44 (45, 46.5, 47.5, 49) (50, 52.5, 56, 59.5) 63.5, 67 cm **Gauge:** 20 sts x 30 rows in stockinette stitch on 4mm needles = 10 x 10 cm after blocking **Needles:** Circular needles: 3.5mm (40 – 120) cm, 4mm (60 – 120) cm **Materials:** 200 (200, 250, 250, 250) (300, 300, 300, 300) 350, 350 g Line by Sandnes Garn (50g = 110m) ** Yarn used in the pictures is Line by Sandnes Garn in shade Matcha (9564)* **Size guide:** Kelso Top is designed to have approximately 7-8 cm of positive ease, meaning it is designed to be approximately 7-8 cm larger in circumference than your bust measurement.
