SUMMER LOVIN' TOP/PONCHO

It's all about Stripes!!!  The pattern is on RAVELRY

I’m totally into stripes at the moment.  They are so cheerful and I find them hard to resist. That being said I think this would look great as a solid top as well.  This top/poncho is knit in two pieces bottom up but sewn together so you wear it side to side.  It’s easy to knit and, has a wonderful drape and looks great on all body types.
