Knitting For Olive | Palma Top Pattern & Yarn Pack
Effortless Texture, Flattering Fit
The Palma Top is a modern, body-hugging knit with subtle shaping and a beautifully textured stitch pattern that offers both visual interest and natural stretch. Knitted from the bottom up, the design begins with an easy A-line shape, gently shaped with decreases for a sleek silhouette.
The body is worked seamlessly in the round to the underarms, where it’s then split, and the front and back sections are completed flat and separately. The shoulder straps are the final touch—adjustable in length and finished with a grafted join for a seamless look.
Designed with negative ease for a close-fitting style, the Palma Top is flattering, versatile, and ideal for layering or wearing solo. To achieve the intended fit, simply refer to the ‘to fit chest circumference’ guide and choose the size that best matches your actual measurement.
Whether you're heading to the beach or brunch, the Palma Top is a stylish staple you'll reach for again and again!
