Awa Top
Enjoy 10% introductory price until May 20th, coupon code: awa10
AWA is the summer knit that keeps you guessing—in the best way. At first glance, it’s clean, minimalist, and effortless. But look closer, and you’ll discover subtle construction details that make this top both intriguing to knit and elegant to wear.
Knit seamlessly from the top down and in the round, AWA features an eye-catching lace panel on the front, set against smooth stockinette. The shoulder shaping is unexpected and refined, elevating the entire silhouette. It’s the kind of piece that pairs just as easily with jeans as it does with a flowing skirt.
Yarn:
Premier Cotton Fair – soft, smooth, and wonderfully affordable, making this project easy on the hands and the wallet.
Perfect for:
☀️ Summer layering
Knitters who enjoy a bit of construction magic
