What you need to know

Use eyelets to create flower motifs in Sian Brown's stylish summer top

Deliciously soft to knit and wear, this flattering top is a wardrobe staple you'll want to wear again and again. The pretty bobble and eyelet pattern is deceptively simple to master but will keep your interest as you work through all the patterns. Shown here in a flattering natural shade, the soft and smooth bamboo yarn used hangs beautifully with a slight stretch for great fit. Dress it up with bright and bold accessories for an evening out or simply team with a pair of soft jeans for elegant lounging. Enjoy!
