PetiteKnit Cloud Top knitting pattern

The PetiteKnit Cloud Top knitting pattern is an A5-sized high-quality print magazine. The pattern is available in both English and Finnish .

The pattern uses Knitting for Olive's Pure Silk yarn.

The Cloud Top is knitted from the top down. First, the back yoke is worked back and forth and the shoulders are shaped with short rows. Then the shoulders are worked back and forth separately with short rows. The shoulders are joined to form the front yoke. The front and back pieces are joined at the armpits and the body is worked in the round with circular needles. The neckline and armholes are worked in stockinette stitch using the picked-up stitches.
Knit a sample patch before starting to know if the needle size is right.

Size selection guide

The top has about 2–5 cm of slack. Sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) are designed to fit a bust circumference of 75–80 (80–85) 85–90 (90–95) 95–100 (100–110) 110–120 (120–130) 130–140 (140–150) cm. The measurements of the finished top are given on the front page of the pattern. Measure yourself before you start working to ensure you choose the right size. Example: if your bust (or the widest part of your upper body) is 90 cm, choose size S. The bust circumference of a size S top is 92 cm, so in this case there would be 2 cm of slack.
