FRESQUIBIRIS is a one-strap top, perfect for Summer. Its color block feature is what makes it so appealing (especially if you use some fluo in it!). You won’t be unnoticed, that’s for sure!

It’s worked top-down, and front and back are worked flat separately until the underarm. You’ll increase stitches on one side every right side row.Then you’ll join the two pieces and continue working in the round, plain stockinette (changing the color when told to) until the rib stitch.

If you don’t know how to knit in circular, you can still knit the Fresquibiris Top, since the instructions are made for plain knitting too.
