Inspired by Summer holidays spent exploring new places, the Flaneur Top is the perfect addition to your Summer wardrobe. This top is combines knitting and sewing to create a stunning piece perfect for everything from date night to beach picnics.

Note: This pattern uses sewing techniques like gathering and adding a zipper, so I recommend you have some experience with sewing. I have a picture tutorial for both the brioche rib and the sewing part.
