This is a printed pattern in Swedish.
June Top Light is knitted from the bottom up. The body is knitted in the round in stockinette stitch and the piece is then divided into front and back pieces, which are knitted separately, back and forth in stockinette stitch. The pattern also includes instructions for knitting the top from the middle using a temporary cast-on, so that the final length of the top can be adjusted at the very end. June Top Light is designed so that the neckline is deeper at the back – but just enough to still cover a bra. A narrow i-cord edge is knitted along all edges.
Size guide
The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL correspond to a bust measurement of approximately 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 cm. June Top Light is therefore worn with a range of motion of approximately -6 cm. Measure yourself before you start knitting to determine which size will fit you best. For example, if you measure 89 cm around the bust (or the widest part of your body), you should knit a size S. A top in size S has an upper width of 83 cm and in the above example will give a range of motion ( negative ease ) of -6 cm.
The model in the picture is wearing a size XS, has a bust measurement of 83 cm and is 164 cm tall. The top is therefore worn with a range of motion of -4 cm.
