This top was inspired by the Altered Stitch’s yarn crawl theme: I Love the 90s! I’ve taken a contemporary twist on your favorite crop top from the good old days of totally tubular 90s fashion! The Sabrina Junk Top is knit in fingering weight held double, allowing for color blending. Use two different colors or more and have fun blending yarns together for this project! The top is knit from the bottom up in 1x1 and 2x1 rib stitch pattern. The top is knit in the round until you separate for the armholes and knit the rest of the garment flat, attaching the front to the back with an i-cord edging and strap. I hope you have fun with this knit!
