The City Top is that polished and chic summer top you’ve been dreaming of; a piece that can be dressed up or down with ease. This pattern is knitted top-down with twisted ribbing detail worked seamlessly from the straps down the sides of the garment. The top is a cropped length and can be adjusted to suit your own preference. The dress version is currently in testing and will be released as an update to The City pattern in mid-August!
