June Top Light - Paper
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 a front and back piece, each worked separately back and forth in stockinette stitch. The pattern also includes instructions for knitting the top from the middle using temporary casting-on, so that the final length of the top can be adjusted right up to the end. June Top Light is designed so that the cutout is deeper at the back – but not so deep that it will 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 assess which size will suit you best. For example, if you measure 89 cm around the bust (or the widest part of your upper body), you should knit size S. A top in size S has a bust width of 83 cm and in the above example will give a range of motion (negative ease) of -6 cm.
