Difficulty:

Category: Knitting

Type of item: Clothing

For: Women

Style: Classic, Cute, Casual, Romantic, Mod, Whimsical


Materials

Lucy Neatby Celestial Merino Dream Multi-color yarn (Mermaid Colorway), US #6 circular needles

What was your inspiration?

I saw the pattern in this same exact yarn and I knew I wanted to make it as a gift for my mother-in-law.

What are you most proud of?

That I actually finished this top and it fit my mother-in-law perfectly.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

This is a quick knit, but there are a few tricky parts. The designer, Ilga Leja, is very accessible so don't hesitate to email her with questions.
