CILLA SUN is a simple and feminine top with an elegant lace
pattern. The top is worked seamlessly from the top down.

First, the front yoke is worked. Then, stitches are picked up and
knitted along the slanted lines of the right and left shoulder,
where the increases are worked on the front yoke. Each shoulder
is worked separately and then joined to form the back of the
neck and the back yoke. The front and back yoke are joined
at the bottom of the armholes, and the body is worked in the
round.

Sizes
Sizes: (1) 2 (3) 4 (5) 6 (7)
Top, chest circumference: (96) 104 (112) 120 (128) 136 (144) cm
Length: (45) 46 (47) 49 (51) 53 (55) cm

The simple construction of CILLA SUN means that the
shoulder width of the top corresponds to the chest circumfer-
ence of the top. The wider the bust circumference, the wider
the shoulders. This means that if you choose a size with a larger
chest circumference, the shoulders of the top will extend further
out than your shoulders, tipping over the shoulder curve and
creating a sense that the top has a little sleeve.

In the photos in this pattern you see me wearing three different
sizes of CILLA SUN.
Version 1: Size 1. Worn with 13 cm of positive ease.
Version 2: Size 2. Worn with 21 cm of positive ease.
Version 3: Size 4. Worn with 37 cm of positive ease and the
shoulders of the top softly tipping over my own shoulders.

How much positive ease you like in your clothes varies from
person to person. It can be a good idea to measure some of your
favorite tops to help you choose the perfect size. I recommend
choosing a size with 15 - 35 cm of positive ease, depending on
which look you prefer.
