The Flower Power Crop works up quickly and is perfect for summer! The top is knitted in the round and seamless. After the front and back are separated, the flower design is knitted using intarsia and i-cord straps are knit at the end.

Notes for modifications are included throughout the pattern. The length and fit can easily be customized, and there are two options for wearing the straps (tied at the neck or seamed to the back).

This pattern uses intarsia and is suitable for beginner/intermediate knitters whether or not you have experience with intarsia. The pattern is also available on Etsy and Ribblr.
