The Alice Top is worked from the bottom up. The body is worked in the round in stockinette stitch to the armholes, the work is then divided for front and back and each section is finished separately, each worked back and forth in stockinette stitch. The back is worked in one piece, while the front is divided for a V-neckline. The pattern also contains instructions for working the top from the middle using a provisional cast on, so the final length of the top can be adjusted at the end by working the body top-down. 

Start by knitting a swatch to determine which size needle gives you the correct gauge. Wash the swatch as the recommended yarns will grow with washing and wear.

Size guide

The sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) are designed to fit a bust circumference of 75-80 (80-85) 85-90 (90-95) 95-100 (100-110) 110-120 (120-130) 130-140 (140-150) cm. This means the Alice Top is designed to have approx. 0 cm of positive ease.

Measure yourself before beginning your project, to determine which size will fit you the best. For example, if you measure 88 cm around your bust (or around the widest part of your upper body) you should knit a size S. A size S top has a bust circumference of 88 cm which in the given example would give you 0 cm [0 inches] of positive ease. The model in the photos is wearing a size XS and has a bust circumference of 80 cm and is 164 cm tall. The top in the photo has 3 cm of positive ease.
