Audrey Top

The Audrey Top is knitted from the bottom up. The body is first knitted in the round in stockinette stitch before the work is divided into a front piece and a back piece, which are knitted separately, back and forth in stockinette stitch with decreases on each side. The shoulder straps are knitted in i-cord.

Make a gauge swatch to check your tension. Wash the gauge swatch before measuring because the recommended yarn will stretch when washed and worn.

Size guide 

Sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) correspond to a bust measurement of approximately 75-80 (80-85) 85-90 (90-95) 95-100 (100-110) 110-120 (120-130) 130-140 (140-150) cm. The Audrey Top is therefore worn with a positive ease of 0-5 cm. Measure yourself before you start knitting to determine which size will fit you best. If you, for example, measure 89 cm around the bust (or the widest part of your body), you should knit a size S. A top in size S has a width of 90 cm and will give a positive ease of 1 cm in the above example.
