ABOUT
The High-Rise Top is a unique, sleeveless garment filled with eye-catching, textured lines that thoughtfully "connect" at every seam. This transitional piece can be layered, like a vest, or worn by itself, like a tank, making it perfect every season! It features a high-low slit, beautiful, ribbed edges and flattering upper body shaping.
Not to mention, this pattern offers easy to follow, row by row instructions for 16 different sizes (in a non-overwhelming way.) So, even those of you that are in-between sizes can have the perfect fit! Plus, it includes helpful diagrams, example photos, and video tutorials that go over specific stitches so there's no confusion.
DIFFICUTLY
This pattern is rated advanced, but that doesn't mean it's hard to understand! I included helpful links to video tutorials that show you exactly how to work the more complicated stitches.
CONSTRUCTION
The High-Rise Top is worked in 4 separate, identical panels. They are each worked from the bottom-up in rows and then seamed together. Once they're seamed, the straps and edging get added!
SIZES
XXS (XS/S, M, L, XL/2X) (3X, 4X/5X, 6X)
For this particular pattern, I made 2 separate gauges so everyone can have the perfect fit! All you need to do is pick out the size that best matches your body (0" ease is recommended) and make sure to match the gauge listed above that measurement!

BEHIND THE NAME
I've always been fascinated by the interesting lines on modern architecture (especially skyscrapers) and since that's where I pulled my inspiration from, I wanted the name to reflect that!
