This seamless kimono top is a brilliant knit for warmer months. The yarn is lightweight and durable and comes in a host of mouthwatering shades. The top is designed to have minimal finishing with an optional crochet edging. There are no seams to sew so you only have ends to weave in when you’ve finished knitting.

This illusion knitting pattern uses 11 balls of the main colour (shown in dark green) and 5 balls of the contrast colour (shown in pale pink).
