This silky and drapey, long A-Line top is made from NUNA FINA, just like Nuna, but lace weight.
Soft and slinky, this yarn is worked with large needle for a very loose and transparent tension.
The bodice, across the bust is worked with double strand of yarn, providing contrast (and coverage).
Garment is worked in one piece, circularly from bottom until armholes. The front and back above armholes are knit separately and then rejoined at collar. The only sewing is a short seam at the top of each shoulder.
