The top is constructed so the first section is worked with shoulder increases and short rows, then the front and back yoke are worked separately, back and forth on the circular needle. Front and back yoke are then joined again to form the body, which is worked in the round on the circular needle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKnit a swatch to determine which needle size gives you the correct gauge. Wash the swatch before measuring the gauge as the recommended yarn grows with wash and wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ivy Top is designed to have approx. 6 cm [2¼ inches] of negative ease, meaning it is designed to be approx. 6 cm [2¼ inches] smaller in circumference than your bust measurement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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 [29½-31½ (31½-33½) 33½-35½ (35½-37½) 37½-39½ (39½-43¼) 43¼-47¼ (47¼-51¼) 51¼-55 (55-59) inches].\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe measurements for the finished top can be found on the front page of the pattern (note that these measurements only apply if the correct gauge is maintained throughout). Measure yourself before beginning your project, to determine which size will fit you the best. For example, if you measure 90 cm [35½ inches] around your bust (or around the widest part of your upper body) you should knit a size S. A size S top has a bust circumference of 84 cm [33 inches] which in the given example would give you 6 cm [2½ inches] of negative ease.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSizes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eXXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBust circumference:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e74 (79) 84 (89) 94 (104) 114 (124) 134 (144) cm [29¼ (31) 33 (35) 37 (41) 45 (48¾) 52¾ (56¾) inches]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArmhole depth:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e19 (20) 21 (22) 23 (23) 24 (24) 24 (24) cm [7½ (7¾) 8¼ (8¾) 9 (9) 9½ (9½) 9½ (9½) inches]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e47 (48) 49 (51) 54 (56) 58 (59) 61 (63) cm [18½ (19) 19¼ (20) 21¼ (22) 22¾ (23¼) 24 (24¾) inches] measured mid back\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGauge:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e20 sts x 28 rows = 10 x 10 cm [4 x 4 inches] in stockinette stitch on a 4 mm [US6] needle after wash and blocking\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeedles:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e4 mm [US6] \/ 40, 60 and 80 and\/or 100 cm [16, 24 and 32 and\/or 40 inches] circular needles\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e250 (250) 250 (250) 300 (300) 350 (350) 400 (450) g Trio 2 by Isager Yarn (50 g = 175 m [191 yds])\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e150 (150-200) 200 (200) 200 (250) 250 (250) 300 (300) g Pure Silk by Knitting for Olive (50 g = 250 m [274 yds])\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e200 (200) 200 (200) 250 (250) 300 (300) 350 (350) g \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/plushsociety.co.uk\/products\/sandnes-tynn-line\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Plush Society - Sandnes Tynn Line Yarn\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eTynn Line by Sandnes Garn\u003c\/a\u003e (50 g = 220 m [241 yds]).
