Eleonora is a flowy, slightly oversized, sleeveless and cropped top.
This top down construction is first connected in the round, then knitted flat until bind off edge. At the side edges, there will be a seam and an opening is left for the armholes.

If you knit the 2nd size up, the neckline will be extra wide, causing it to fall of one shoulder. I really like this but for those that do not like this style, I recommend to make the 1st size up.

You can wear this piece to the beach and throw it over your bikini.
You can also wear this piece with a pair of jeans or with a skirt.

Dress it up, dress it down. Wear it nonchalantly or wear it chic.
Style it the way you want it and the way you feel most comfortable with!

This pattern is at this moment only available at in print at two yarn stores in NYC:
Knitty City in Manhattan and La Casita Yarn Shop Cafe in Brooklyn.
