Meet the Baja Top, a mix of knit stitches in our wild and pretty printed cotton fabric yarn. The designer Annie uses an unexpected construction with fun color mixing and vertical stripes. The end result is this completely unique summer top we want to wear everywhere. Annie mixed two colors of our Wildflower yarn - Petal and Goldenrod here. This style would also be fantastic to see knit with your left over Knit Collage yarn for an even more bohemian, artisan look. This pattern lends itself well to yarn mixing. You might even go out on a limb and try our mini skein kits for this purpose!
