Snowdrops for Her summer top for ladies is worked completely top-down and has several unique features.

The bodice is knit in a fun and simple all-over lace stitch pattern. The top and the bottom parts are divided with a waistline Snowdrops stitch pattern made in a contrast color.

The bottom part of this top has enough flare to fit with the positive ease in the hip area and feel comfortable if worked in a dress length, to above the knees.

The armholes and neckline are finished with eyelet trims in a contrast colour to complete the look.

The top is designed to fit with about 2-3 inches of positive ease. For finished measurements see Schematics on the last page.

The pattern has charts, schematics and written instructions.
