Betty Spaghetti is iconic. So is this top. The Betty Top is a slim-fit spaghetti strap knitting pattern with a deep round neckline. Simple, summery, and exactly the kind of project that knits up fast. Knitted in lightweight Summer Softness, it's the top you'll reach for all season.
The top is worked from the top down. You start by working the neckline shaping on each side of the front piece separately, before joining the pieces and finishing the front piece. Stitches are cast on for the back piece using the backwards loop method, and the body is worked in the round before binding off with an i-cord bind-off. Stitches are picked up for an i-cord edge along the top of the body. Finally, the straps are worked as an i-cord and sewn to the back piece.

Knit a swatch first
Everyone knits a little differently – knit a small swatch and check your gauge before you start your project.
Watch how to knit a swatchKeep in mind that yarns vary in elasticity. Yarns with non-elastic, plant-based fibers (like linen and cotton) often benefit from sizing up, or choosing a fit with less negative ease.
