Description of Como Vibe Top

The Como Vibe Top is knitted from the bottom up. It starts with a rib edge and then continues in stockinette stitch. Above the bust, there is a decorative V shape made with lace pattern. The top features I-cord edges at the neckline and armholes. The straps can be knitted in 3 different widths, and optional fringes can be added to the lace pattern.

 Size Selection

The Como Vibe Top is designed as a knitted tank top with a negative ease of 12-30 cm, but it will stretch somewhat with wear. Therefore, you should measure yourself and choose a size based on your bust measurement and how tightly you want the top to fit. 

To ensure you get the correct length for the Como Vibe Top, it’s a good idea to try it on as you go. The top’s length will "pull up" when you put it on because it fits closely. Therefore, the final length of the top will not match the measurements provided below when you are wearing it. Be sure to try the top on during the knitting process! :-)
