Inspired by little critters chattering in a meadow, their songs carried on a Summer breeze, this top is a simple but elegant knit for warmer months. Knitted from the top down completely in the round, the simple stitch pattern allows stunning variegated yarn to shine, and its comfortable fit makes it easy to wear all summer long!
