Knitting: Sleeveless Top
Wolf Bayou is a light, airy, and dreamy as hell tank top. It’s worked seamlessly from the top down. First the front and back pieces are knitted flat to the underarms, then they are joined to work in the round.

Knitting: Pullover
Smackover is a super cozy everyday pullover that will become an instant classic in your knit wardrobe.

The back is a little bit lon...
Knitting: Sleeveless Top
As a lifelong member of the itty bitty bitty committee, I am blessed that serious support isn’t something I have to worry about. I am totally obsessed with these little bra tops. I wear them in place of a regular bra pretty much everyday (even in the summertime!). They are great for wearing under other knits or blouses. They’re super cute worn ...
