Sorella Sleeveless Top is a luxurious knit covered in beautiful cables and aran inspired patterns to create a modern garment with a nod to traditional knitwear. Designed for the wonderful Baskerville DK from Kettle Yarn Co., this garment will feel like a warm hug on a chilly evening. The construction is simple, giving full attention to the intricate stitch patterns; a challenge for the advanced beginner or a fun knit for the intermediate and experienced knitter.

Sorella is knitted in one piece starting from the back hem and worked towards the shoulder, then from the shoulder down to the front hem. The rib at the back is intentionally longer than the rib at the front. The work is split at the shoulder for the neckline. Using a provisional cast on for the front of the neckline prevents the need for picking up stitches, but if preferred, a traditional cast on can be used.
