Lemontini Top Knitting Pattern

$8.00

The Lemontini top is a spaghetti strap backless tank top. It is a slim-fitted top. It is worked from the top down, beginning with being worked flatlay for the underarm and back shaping. It is then joined in the round to create the body of the top, ending in a 1x1 ribbing. The final step in the process is making an i-cord strap and back trim. While making the back trim, loops are made for the straps to be tied through.

The final garment has 5-10cm/2-4in of negative ease. If you would like a more relaxed fit to your top, it is recommended to size up by 1 or two sizes.
