This top is inspired by the art ‘vibe’ I felt when I visited Nelson, BC. The cut-out style, and positive ease allows you to drape it over the top of various outfits, from a bikini top, to a strappy dress. Your choice!

Constructed in four panels, each panel is small enough to take in your bag to work on-the-go. That’s what I strive for with all patterns; not only can you make them on your travels, the finished projects will be a great addition to your vacation wardrobe!

This pattern also includes a link to a Youtube tutorial (exclusive to the pattern)
