| Job type | Test knit |
| Description | This top is started in the round from the collar and then shoulder saddles are seamlessly extended from it by knitting flat. Front stitches are picked up from the saddle end of rows and transferred from the collar front. The upper front is worked flat in two different stitch patterns; Daisies and Bell lace. The back is worked the same way as the front before the two are joined together under the armhole and the lower body is worked in Supple rib in the round until the end. The bottom of the body includes some simple cables to add some firmness to it. |

Follow the pattern. If you wish to make changes, consult with me first. You can use any colors or yarn you like, as long as it follows gauge. Make sure you register your yardage. If you think you may not make it until deadline, contact me in time and we can discuss. Register your test as a project on Ravelry, referring to given test code, as soon as you start your project. Add at least one picture of your finished project when done. After finishing, answer feedback questions here at Yarnpond. Let me know as soon as you have questions or issues (here at Yarnpond or by e-mail). After finishing, send me a picture of a person (you or someone else) wearing the finished top that I can use for marketing (Ravelry, Instagram, Bluesky...) |
