Etera Top Knitting Pattern

“Etera” top is worked seamlessly from the top down. The lace pattern of the circular yoke is repeated in the side lace panels which give the garment its A-line shape. The pattern contains two shaping options – with moderate A-line up to the hipline, and with a more pronounced A-line shape. For both versions, detailed row-by-row instructions are provided. Pattern instructions account for any sleeve length as well as for any garment length.
