Knitting Kit - Flow Loop Top by Other Loops

FLOW_LOOP_TOP

The top is knitted from top to bottom. The shoulder stitches are first cast on using a provisional cast-on. The front shoulders are worked separately in back and forth rows with short rows and increases to form the V-neck and armholes. The two shoulders are then joined to form the front.

The back shoulders are then worked separately with short rows and increases to shape the V-neck and armholes. Once the shoulders are complete, they are joined to form the back. The V-neck and armhole edgings are incorporated directly into the knitting.

The front and back are then joined to form the body, which is worked in the round. The top ends with a row of small cables and an Italian bind-off.

Vertical cable lines run throughout the garment, creating a simple and elegant graphic effect.
