The sample is in the French Anemone colourway.
The top is knitted seamlessly from the top down using a single strand of your choice of Pure Silk, Cotton Merino or Merino.
Work begins with the upper back, followed by picking up stitches for the shoulders. Additional stitches are cast on to form the wide boat neckline, while increases shape the armholes. Once the front and back are brought together on the same needle, the body is worked continuously in the round.
Gentle increases through the body create the slight A-line shape, before the hem is finished with a neat i-cord edge. Matching i-cord finishes are also worked around the armholes and neckline, giving the top clean, durable edges and a polished look.
