This top is knit in one piece with a close fit using 7 (7,8,9,9) balls of Shine Sport for the body and 1 ball of Stroll Glimmer as an added accent on the ridge pattern.

It is worked flat from the front bottom up, sleeve sts casted on, neckline sts. put on holder, and worked down to the back bottom edge. The pattern includes more detail than the usual “work down to back, reversing shaping!” Neckline sts are picked up and ribbed, and so are sleeve edges for a nice finished fit. Sleeves can easily be lengthened an inch or two by casting on more stitches. Side seams are the only sewing required.

Knitting needles size 8 (6mm) and size 6(4mm) straight or size to obtain gauge. 31”size 6 circular for neck.
