Description

Cumulus Top by Petite Knit

The Cumulus Top is worked from the top down in stockinette stitch. First, four triangles are worked to shape front and back with a V-neck, which are then joined on the circular needle to form the body. The body is worked straight in the round in stockinette stitch and finished with a folded hem. At the end, i-cord edges are worked along the top edges. These i-cord edges are continued into the straps, which are sewn together with Kitchener stitch at the shoulders.

Size guide

The sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL are designed to fit a bust circumference of 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 cm [31½-33½ (33½-35½) 35½-37½ (37½-39½) 39½-43¼ (43¼-47¼) 47¼-51¼ inches]. This means that the Cumulus Top is designed to have approx. 6 cm [2¼ inches] of negative ease (meaning the top should be 6 cm [2¼ inches] smaller than your bust circumference). Before beginning your project, measure yourself to determine which size to knit. For example, if you measure 89 cm [35 inches] around your bust (or around the widest part of your upper body) you should knit a size S. A size S top has a bust circumference of 84 cm [33 inches] which in the given example would give you 5 cm [2 inches] of negative ease.

The model in the photos is wearing a size XS and has a bust circumference of 82 cm [32¼] and is 164 cm [approx. 5 feet 4 inches] tall. The top in the photo has 2 cm [¾ inch] of negative ease.
