Sometimes you just need a quick win. It seems like everything I make is a months-long project (some times years-long, but we won't go there).
This little Linen Top by Kat Coyle popped up in my Ravelry browsing and I had to try it!

Knit in Louet Euroflax Sport on a size US 10 needle (6.0 mm) from side to side. The eyelet ridge is an easy way to add a lacy look and the knitting was fast and easy. I crocheted the seams and crocheted around all the edges for a more finished look. 

Kat's pattern is a one-size fits all style but I know from experience that one-size is always too big on me. I made some minor modifications to the dimensions to make it a bit longer (21") and narrower (22") and the result is perfect. I could't be more pleased with the style and fit. It also feels comfortable to wear and goes great over a ton of different colors. Summer tanks or winter long-sleeved T's.

Its a good thing linen wears and washes like iron because this one will be worn a lot!

And no lightening was required!

The pattern that I mentioned in my last post is finally ready. The Tech Editor has done her work, the test knitters have finished their socks and comments to me, the final edits have been added and the whole thing is shiny and polished 😀

My first self-published pattern is now for sale on Ravelry as a digital download.

Or on Etsy as a printed paper copy. I'm very proud of the finish product and hope to have another pattern out soon. So many are swimming around in my head!

I'd love to hear what you think and if you knit them, send me a photo for the pattern's companion page!
