Both the front and the back of this eclectic patchwork topper are con- structed from eight individual panels that are worked in a variety of textural stitches and directions, then sewn together. Additional panels join the front and back at the side seams, creating the armhole trim. Short braids of yarn are attached at key intersections. The oversized fit and worsted-weight versatility of Trendsetter’s Merino 8 make this an ideal layering piece.
