The pattern is available in English and German.
The Ellie Summer Top is a close fitting tanktop, which is knit from top to bottom in one piece. The backside is knit first, then stitches are picked up for the frontsides, which are then knit individually. Lastly all the top pieces are combined and the body is finished by knitting in rounds. The top has i-cord edges all around: An i-cord marks the beginning of the backside, the straps have an i-cord edge and the body is finished with an i-cord cast-off.
