Description

Vera top is a short, slim top, worked in lamb wool and alpaca silk. It can therefore be worn with airy skirts or shorts in summer or underneath your clothes on cooler days, but also as a cool top for special occasions.

The top is worked bottom up. You cast off sts at the back piece and finish both front pieces separately. At the end you work the straps in double knit to your preferred length. 

Size guide:
A top with straps will always seam looser and wider as the given measurements. Choose a size that is 0- 5 cm slimmer (negative ease) than your bust measurement. 

Needle sizes:
Circular needle 4 mm (60 or 100 cm) for body and front piece.
Circular needle 3 mm (60 or 100 cm) for ribbing and straps in double face.

Colour:
The pictured model is worked in Rauma Lamull L51 and Rauma Alpaca silk 0512.
