Moon Beam Top is a sweet sleeveless top with intriguing subtle details. If you are looking for a project full of elegant details that will enchant you, look no further. Knit seamlessly from the top down this minimalist top features a beautiful neckband of eyelets flowing into a triangular motif, shaped shoulder edging, an interesting armhole trim, garter stitch underarm detailing, and a mini split hem at the centre back. It is knitted in Meadow, which has the perfect drape and stitch definition for this gorgeous project.

The Almanac Series II
The Moon Beam Top is part of The Almanac Series II, which is a seasonal guide to knitting with The Fibre Co. yarns. Based on the original farmer’s Almanac guide to the seasons, this collection celebrates each month of the year with our Yarn of the Month and a new design launch in that yarn.

For The Almanac Series II, we looked to the heavens for inspiration. The beauty and grandeur of the night sky and awe-inspiring astronomical phenomena guided our creativity.

As the season turns here in the Northern hemisphere, and the temperature begins to rise again, we embrace our yarns more suitable for the warmer months. February is Cirro, March is Acadia, May is Luma, June is Amble, and July is Meadow.
