Wave Top Sweater Crochet Pattern

CONSTRUCTION



The body of the Wave top consists of two motifs (Back and Front).

As soon as the neckline is finished on each piece, they are joined at the beginning of the shoulders and continue as a single piece (Front and Back at the same time) with the decreases placed at the shoulders.

After reaching the desired width of the top, the sides are joined as you go. The sleeves are worked top down with decreases placed along each sleeve creating a gentle taper to the cuff.
