Simplicity Top
From the magazine: "Two ribbon yarns, each crocheted at a different gauge, are combined to create this form-flattering top. The narrower, solid-color Glace, a flat rayon tape, provide sheen and no-cling drape. The wider novelty ribbon Zen adds a stripe of color and texture. Worked seamlessly from the neck down, the top features a wide, open neckline, raglan style shoulder shaping, and mid-hip length. Make it as shown with tiny cap sleeves or work optional longer short sleeves. This fabric has minimal horizontal stretch - choose a size with enough ease."
Note on Yarn: Berroco Zen Colors, #8181 shakti mix (MC) (2-3 balls, depending on size) and Berroco Glace #2581 teardrop (CC) (5 to 9 skeins, depending on size)
Note on Gauge: 6sts and 2 rows = 4" in single crochet with MC and larger hook (this gauge is oversized for yarn, keep work relaxed). 6 reps and 6 rows = 4" in ch1, cl pattern with CC and smaller hook
