Breezy Top Pattern for Summer
Lima Top is a breezy, modern summer knit featuring a clean, two-tone graphic motif. Crafted from the bottom up using a single strand of Knitting for Olive Cotton Merino, this top pairs two contrasting shades to create a bold yet minimalist look.
The body is worked seamlessly in the round up to the underarms, after which it’s split into front and back panels. These sections are shaped and finished individually, worked flat. Once assembled, stitches are picked up around the neckline and armholes, and the edges are neatly finished with an elegant I-cord bind-off. The colourwork design is presented in chart format only, offering a clear guide to the striking pattern.
Our Lima Top Pattern & Yarn Pack includes 2 yarns for the base colour, 1 yarn for the stripes, and a digital pattern.
