Get yourself ready for summer evenings on the beach with this colourful fiesta style top! All you need is a cocktail and you’re ready to watch the sunset…

Made in a lightweight cotton blend DK yarn, with a 4.5mm hook, it’s easy to throw on and will keep you warm when the sun fades.

The front is worked from the colourful yoke outwards in a U shape, so you can check the fit as you go, and simply stop when its wide enough, then add extra length if desired.

The contrasting tassels give it a playful touch, however the whole top looks great in one plain colour if you prefer a more neutral look.

You will need between 500g-700g of the main colour, and approx 40g of each contrast colour.

The UK pattern comes in sizes XS, S, M, L & XL - Bust sizes 72cm - 120cm. It is intermediate level and includes schematics, diagrams, photo tutorials, and clear written instructions.
