Note
A top is knit in the round from the hem to the armholes. The front and back pieces are then separated and knit flat to the shoulders. Shoulders are joined using the Three Needle Bind-Off. Neckline and armhole stitches are picked up and edging applied. Once completed, horizontal tucks are created through a series of embroidered stitches on the front, resulting in the front length cropped.

Note
Ricciaは裾から袖ぐりまで輪で編み, 前後身頃を分け, それぞれ肩まで往復編みで編む. 肩をはぎ, 襟ぐりと袖ぐりは目を拾って編む. 編み終わった後に, 刺繍ステッチを施し水平にタックを入れる. このステップで裾が上がり前身頃だけクロップ丈になる.
