Floral knit top

After having some trouble with the grains on some voile, I decided to ditch that project and start on something else. I used the #9 pattern from Ottobre 3/2007 but made the straps continuous (rather than tie up) and didn't add the frills.



I think I will make the coordinating shorts (#10) - with the changes I made, this project was super quick and I am sure they will be staple summer items for the years to come.

  2. Marie this is gorgeous - and I love seeing it because I traced off the same two patterns last night and also intended to make a continuous shoulder strap rather than the tie-ups!!

  3. A lovely top there, Marie. A nice simple style with a very pretty fabric. I'm sure Jalisa will get loads of wear out of it over summer.
