I made the criss cross top pattern a few years ago on my lk-150 knitting machine. I converted it to knit flat and match my gauge using knit picks cotlin.
The ribbing and cable are hand manipulated, which involves changing the orientation of stitches (purls to knits) and moving the individual stitches to different needles on the needle bed. It was pretty tricky to do the big 9x9 cable cross on the machine because it couldn’t stretch the yarn across the needle distance. I ended up hand sewing shut the large holes on either side when I did the finishing.
I think it came out nice, but I don’t really wear sleeveless tops. It just hangs out in my closet collecting dust. :)
Ha, thanks! It’s a free pattern and not too crazy to knit (no sleeves).
