What you need to know

Looking for your next challenge? This lace design by Kunbi Ayo-Okanlawon is sure to earn a place on your must-knit list.

Enjoy the double takes this top will cause as you flash the striking floral pattern on the back. The giant daisies not only look amazing but add welcome ventilation within a light layer. The plain stocking stitch front is the perfect foil, and will get you into your knitting stride for the lacy back. Be ready with an extra yarn end or ball to work across the entire row for the neck shaping, rather than finishing a side at a time. We say, go daisy crazy in a fun floral shade!
