I purchased this gorgeous yarn during a visit to North Sweden in April.

I love the subtle colours and the softness of the yarn and wanted to create a simple top to compliment this.

The body of the garment is knitted in the round until the sleeves, where they are cast on (no increasing/decreasing involved).

The only sewing required are on the sleeve seams and neckline.

As this top is knitted in 6mm needles, it is quick to make!

I would highly recommend this pattern for anybody new to circular knitting who would like to make a garment.
