This top was knitted in ribbing with Rowan Calmer. This yarn is fantastic to work with and I believe, may be my favorite summer yarn. A cotton and microfibre blend, Rowan Calmer doesn’t hurt the fingers as 100% cotton would. The microfibre lends a good deal of elasticity and working the garment in a ribbing makes it even better.
Definitely great for summer!
Because of the striping, I chose to knit this garment in two pieces and then seam the pieces together because frankly, no matter what anyone says, a jog is never truly jogless.
I must say, though, I didn’t mind the seaming. In fact, there’s something actually a bit soothing and fun about the process.
Eyelets were incorporated at the top so that a small i-cord could be woven through and tied.
