LIMITED EDITION! Oh My Figure Top ENGLISH (metric)
This pattern is in English only. Knitting vocabulary is UK, and the units are metric.
The Oh My Figure Top is a Summer 2024 limited edition pattern combining the V-neck modification with the original Oh My Figure pattern top part only. If you already have the original Oh My Figure pattern and you want to make a V-neck top, it's cheaper to get the V-neck add-on. However, if you don't already have the full pattern, you can't make a top from the V-neck add-on only. As I realise getting both the full pattern and the V-neck add-on only to make a top would be quite an investment, I'm offering this pattern for the Top as a limited time offer.
This pattern will only be available for purchase during June and July 2024.
The Oh My Figure Top is worked seamlessly from the top down. The V-neck is made up of four straps that are joined below the armholes. The garment is made-to-measure for a nice tight fit regardless of body type. The lines in the design follow the natural feminine curves to highlight your figure. If you decide to make a dress later, you can continue directly from this pattern to the original Oh My Figure pattern. Get inspired on Instagram using #OhMyFigureTop.

Size guide:
Selecting your size: 2x2 rib is very stretchy so it will fit a little looser or tighter unnoticeably, so choose the size closest to your measurements regardless of a positive or negative ease. It adapts +/- 5%, and so this pattern will fit bust measurements within the range of 70-147 cm. If you wish to adapt the garment to fit your whole-body measurements, then choose the size closest to your bust measurement.
