Craft: Knitting

This deceptively simple top is cleverly knit from the center out to each side, rather than from top to bottom or vice versa. A modern pivot to a familiar style! A tapered shape allows for plenty of ease at the bust, while providing a relaxed and flattering bottom edge at hip length.

For a lightweight, versatile version, pick the ethically-sourced Madelinetosh Tosh Merino Light.

For a warmer woolly version, use Rowan Felted Tweed. makes a warm, cozy, more structured layer.

There is a free adaptation for adding sleeves.
