AMY TOP
AMY TOP
The Amy Top is an oversized knit pattern, extremely cool and a lígale adictive.
You’ll work from the bottom up in the round. You‘ll cast on a huge number of stitches and you must be careful not to twist them when joining to work in the round (for this reason you must use a long ca le).
Then you’ll work along different sections with fewer and fewer stitches.
To finish, you’ll separate the front and back and work the peaks of the upper chest one by one. Onecesito you have worked the four peaks, you will sew the five shoulder stitches and voilá.
In the pattern you will find videos of all the techniques used.
