This 1940s style utility top has a beautiful sailor open collar finished in double crochet. The top has a central lace panel down the front, back and sleeves and added stitch detail to the yoke and shoulders. With three quarter puffed sleeves and a ribbed cuff there’s a real feminine touch to this easy to wear top. Knitted in Rowan wool cotton mix 4 ply yarn, this garment is perfect for any season; as it’s warm enough for the cooler evenings whilst the lace panel, three quarter sleeves and v neckline make it highly adaptable. As the Rowan yarn has now been discontinued, any 4 ply weight yarn can be used in wool or cotton. The instructions are given for the garment to be knitted in the flat from the bottom up. With an easy-fit silhouette, this top looks great dressed up with a pencil skirt and heels, as well as wide leg trousers or jeans and flat pumps.
