    About

    Saw this yarn and loved the colours although it’s not a yarn I would normally choose being all acrylic. However, it has knitted up lovely and has a look and feel of soft cotton. It was perfect for this top. I really enjoyed knitting this and will probably make another at some point as it’s very comfortable to wear. The pattern was really easy to follow and this is my second item knitted top down all in one. There is no sewing whatsoever apart from weaving in yarn ends. A very satisfying quick and easy knit.

    Pattern

    Rosamund

    Yarns

    Needles & Hooks

    • Circular 3.50mm (US 4) 80cm

    • Tapestry Needle

    Measurements

    Notes: I knit exactly to the pattern and was really happy with the fit. It is very easy to adjust the fit whilst knitting due to the top down construction as you can try on as you knit. The yarn used is soft and stretchy which I think makes it fit really well.

        Thank you Alison. It was the colours that made me choose this yarn. Love this top and think I’ll get a lot of wear out of it.
