Wilson Top
Begins April 26

Description

Wilson Top by Allyson Dykhuizen

This perfect for summer tee is knit from the top down using eyelet increases for the yoke and an easy to memorize all over mock garter stitch pattern. In this class we’ll learn how to swatch with cotton or linen yarns (or wool if you choose), follow a pattern and how to customize the yoke for a great fit. Whether this is your first knit top or not,  it’s a fun and quick knit for new and seasoned garment knitters. Imagine how warm it will be when we wear our summer Wilson Tops!
