TWIST-FRONT TOP

Knit Simple Spring/Summer 2013 #10

Design by Mari Lynn Patrick

There’s a surplus of reasons to love this surplice-style top, flattering on a full array of figures. The garment is constructed by knitting two ribbed pieces, folding the mover to form armholes, then crossing the fronts to achieve the wrap effect.
