Syrtos Top

Syrtos top is a circular short sleeve yoke that is worked seamlessly from the top down. The neck is worked first, after that, several series of short rows are used for a comfortable and beautifully shaped finish.

The yoke is shaped with increases that are evenly distributed around the entire circumference of the upper body followed by several raglan sets.

Sleeves are then placed on hold and the body is worked toward the hem.

The sleeve stitches are then placed on the needles again and worked in the round toward the cuffs.

Beginner-friendly as you only work with 2 colors at a time.

Please note that the stranded pattern is charted only.

As the top is knitted top-down lengths are easily adaptable.

The lower edge of the body and the sleeves are finished with an i-cord bind-off.
