This top is knit flat in pieces and seamed. The shoulders are joined with the three-needle bind-off. Stitches for the button bands are picked up and worked flat after seaming. Buttons are attached as the final step.

Although this garment is meant to be loose-fitting, it can look just as lovely with less ease. We recommend choosing a size approximately 0-8” larger than your natural bust measurement.
