Keep it cool. A classic pinup style sweater girl top perfect for warmer weather. Sweetheart neckline complete with bust darts and front gathering. Flutter, cap, or puff sleeve options let you create three different styles to suit your mood.

SIZES
XS, (S, M, L) [1X, 2X, 3X, 4X]

CONSTRUCTION
Knit almost seamlessly from the bottom up! Opt for a 3 needle Bind Off at the shoulders to make it truly seamless.

YARN
fingering weight / We recommend a fiber with elasticity for this pattern since it is designed to fit close to the body. The sample uses CoBaSi by skacel, a unique cotton with elastic. A soft wool would be another option. Cotton without elastic is not recommended due to the lack of resilience. Quantity given is approximate, may vary based on yarn used.
Flutter/Cap Sleeve version: 435 (500, 575, 665) [755, 820, 880, 900] yards / 400 (455, 525, 610) [690, 750, 805, 825] meters
Puff Sleeve version: 585 (680, 775, 895) [1025, 1105, 1190, 1215] yards / 535 (620, 710, 820) [935, 1010, 1090, 1110] meters

Versatile pattern

I love the versatility of this pattern! It’s written in a way that you can really customize your blouse to fit your body, but also customize how you work the pattern.

I love that there are multiple options to choose how to keep track of when to switch to the next step. For example one option is to work the pattern for x number inches, or the other option is to work the pattern for x number rows.

I also love the fact that there are three sleeve options to choose from, so you can choose the sleeve that best works for your body type and style.

The only negative thing about this pattern is that it can be a little confusing and intimidating when you first look at it. Because of the number of options written in the pattern, it makes for many pages of information to sift through.

Overall, I really like the way this pattern is presented. I am currently working on my first sleeve and can’t wait to be done, so I can wear my new creation! I will definitely seek out more patterns by Poison Girls in the future!
