I just finished up a little knitted top for Penny. It is a free pattern from Lion Brand Yarn called Child's Sun Top. I didn't use Lion Brand Cotton-Ease yarn, however. I used some really pretty, soft yarn that I found on clearance. It is Classic Silk from Classic Elite Yarns. The color is Primrose, with Stream used for the flowers. The french knots are just Peaches & Cream cotton yarn in Natural.
I really love this pattern because it was so easy for me to do! It wasn't stressful or too complex and I still ended up with an adorable baby top. I think that she has a good deal of room in it so it may last till summer when it would actually become a sun top. Until then, it layers nicely.
Love the top, great job. Was it hard? It looks like it was mostly straight knit stitchs, with a little bit of purl, I might be able to handle that. Thanks for naming the pattern and sharing.
ReplyDeleteThe top looks cute. I was doing good looking at your knitting until I reached the second picture. Love that face! Never noticed the top after that one lol.
ReplyDeleteI like the daisy stitches you have on the top. Spices up a simple top in a anice way.
Happy New Year, Amy! I love this little top. You did such a great job on it--the flower design is really pretty. It looks like Penny approves, too. She is just adorable--I love that smile.
