A sweet top-down sleeveless top for little ones, worked seamlessly in the round. Twisted cable straps in 1/1 rib sit neatly on the shoulder, leading into a smooth stockinette yoke. A simple increase round transitions into a flowing cable hem worked in a travelling left-cross pattern.
Perfect summer project for knitters comfortable with basic cable techniques. Worked in Erika Knight Cotton Tweed on 4 mm needles —knits surprisighly fast.
