We’re knitting a bright overtop for you this week.
How To: Knitting A Bright Overtop
Photography by Eddie Phillips.
Our top features a bobble pattern against a garter-stitch background. A large V neck completes the look.
The colourful yarn is Rico Creative Melange Chunky in Teal-Lilac (057). A fun mix of blended colours that will knit up quickly.
It is available from your local stockist or you can order direct from www.blacksheepwools.com.
Instructions are for six sizes ranging from 76/81 cm (30/32 ins) to 127/132 (50/52 ins). Actual size is around 18/13 cm (7/5 ins) bigger, giving a comfortable fit.
The bobble panels feature throughout the front and back over a four-row repeat.
This is the perfect choice for an extra layer indoors or out. The wool and acrylic yarn will keep you cosy and is practical enough for every-day wear.
So why not add a splash of colour to your day with this bright, fashionable overtop?
