Originally published in Issue 257 of Knitting Magazine, this colourful top is an entertaining project to knit, with simple colourwork patterns repeated all over both front and back, and minimal shaping.
The geometric hills and valleys in the central three-colour panels stand out against the two-colour checked pattern on the sides and the single colour edgings.
