Camisole No. 4 is a feminine summer top in a bohemian style.
The decorative increases on the front sections make the top fit beautifully and give character, whilst the ribbed pattern combined with the yarn texture create an almost crocheted look.
The top is worked top down, which means you have the possibility of adjusting the length to suit your body.

SIZE GUIDE
Camisole No. 4 is designed to have a negative ease of approx. 2-5 cm [0.75-2 inches].
Measure yourself before beginning in order to choose the correct size for you.
The sizes are based on a chest circumference of approx. 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) cm [31.5-33.5 (33.5-35.5) 35.5- 37.5 (37.5-39.5) 39.5- 43.25 (43.25-47.25 inches] .
Ie: You measure 86 cm [33.75 inches] - 5 cm [4 inches] = 81 cm [29.75 inches]. Meaning that you would choose a size S. If you are in between 2 sizes, pick the smallest. As the top is worked in a patterned rib, it is stretchy and will grow with use.
