The Edith Top is a breezy Summer crochet garment with a fun retro feel! It looks great in a solid colour, or try it in stripes from our Limited Edition Spring Cotton range for something unique!
This pattern is crocheted from the top down, starting with the neckband (worked flat), then joined to work the yoke in the round. Next, you work back and forth in rows for the armholes, before rejoining the back and front to work the rest of the body in the round.
4 tr groups and 8 rows to 10cm over Pattern using a 5.00mm hook.
