CaMaRose Summer Vibe Top

SUMMER VIBE TOP is a basic top with a very simple garter pattern worked flat. The pattern looks complicated but is actually quite easy to knit. Besides garter stitch the pattern is made by knitting 3 stitches together and yarn overs. The construction is also very simple and consists of two pieces that are sewn together. The pattern includes both a chart and row-by-row instructions for the chart. The Summer vibe top is knit top down and can therefore be lengthened or shortened as desired. However, if alterations are made you may require more yarn.

The top can either be worked in 8 colours plus a contrast colour, in one colour plus a contrast colour or in uni-colour.

The top is knitted in ØKOLOGISK SOMMERULD
