Noemie Top MODE Collection in Rowan Summerlite 4ply PDF

Noemie Top MODE Collection by QUAIL STUDIO

What is Being Made

The Noemie Top is a knitted garment designed as part of the MODE Collection by QUAIL STUDIO. This downloadable PDF pattern provides instructions for creating a fitted top suitable for a range of chest sizes from 71-76 cm (28-30 inches) up to 152-157 cm (60-62 inches), with the finished garment chest measurements ranging from 90 cm to 171.5 cm. The pattern is photographed in two colorways: Navy Ink and Ecru, both in Rowan Summerlite 4ply yarn.

Craft and Techniques

This is a knitting project classified as beginner level difficulty, making it accessible to newer knitters while still producing a polished, wearable garment. The construction employs short-row shaping techniques, which are visible in the pattern instructions where stitches are wrapped and turned at strategic points. This advanced shaping method creates contoured fit and three-dimensional structure without requiring complex stitch patterns, allowing the focus to remain on clean construction and garment fit.

Stitches and Stitch Work

The Noemie Top utilizes fundamental knitting stitches including knit (K) and purl (P) stitches as the foundation of the fabric. The short-row technique involves wrapping stitches and turning the work mid-row to build shaping gradually. This method creates smooth, gradual increases and shaping without visible holes or gaps, resulting in a professionally finished garment with excellent drape and fit.

Materials: Yarn and Needles

The pattern calls for Rowan Summerlite 4ply yarn, a lightweight four-ply weight suitable for creating breathable, delicate knitwear. Yardage requirements range from 4 to 7 balls of 50-gram skeins depending on the size being knitted, allowing crafters to select the appropriate quantity for their chosen measurements. The pattern specifies 3mm knitting needles (one pair), which are appropriately sized for working with 4ply yarn to achieve proper gauge and fabric density. The Summerlite fiber composition makes this top ideal for warm-weather wear, with the Navy Ink and Ecru colorways offering versatile styling options.
