This little top can’t help but bring a smile and it is also really simple to knit. With basic shaping a touch of Swiss darning, it is a great choice for new knitters looking to make their first foray into garments. The classic watermelon shades are ideal for summer, but the pattern would look just as good knitting in one colour a stripe pattern of your choice!

SUPER cute dressed with leggings or tights for the cooler months.

Scheepjes Stone Washed is a DK weight blend of 78% cotton and 22% acrylic. It’s easy to care for and great for the summer.
