Recommended circular needles size 3 and 3½ mm / US 2½ and 4, in 80 cm / 32 inches length (we use magic loop for small circumferences)

Procedure
The top is worked in the round, from the top down. Cast on stitches using a temporary crochet cast on, so the size of the neckline can be adjusted subsequently. Short rows are worked across the shoulder and back at the beginning to ensure a good fit. The yoke is worked with increases, made into small stars. These can be omitted. Hereafter the work is divided into body and sleeves, and both are finished separately.
