PATTERN | KARYNA TOP

The striped KARYNA tank top is worked in rounds of stockinette stitch from the bottom, starting with a narrow ribbed hem with a fine lace line, up to the armholes. The front and back pieces are continued separately in rows. The narrow spaghetti straps are worked as an i-cord. The top is worked in 6 alternating colour blocks that match and harmonise perfectly with each other using two colours from the extensive Puno/Puno Winikunka colour palette. The top is designed with a straight, loose cut that can easily be customizable to any length.

The sizes correspond to the bust circumference as follows: (XS; S; M) (L; XL; XXL) (3XL; 4XL; 5XL) = (30; 32; 35) (39; 42; 46) (50; 54; 58)” / (76; 82; 90) (98; 107; 117) (127; 137; 147) cm breast circumference (measured at the body). The top has a snug fit and should be worn with little positive ease. Example: If you have a bust circumference of 35” (90 cm), you should choose size M for a positive ease of 1.6” (4 cm).
