The Ballerina Top

The Ballerina Top has an oversized fit and is designed to be worn for several years — first as a short dress and later as a top. If you prefer a closer fit, you can knit one size smaller.

The Ballerina Top is worked top-down in one piece and requires no finishing. The top is very simple to knit.
