As much as I love playing with cables and lace in summer, sometimes I just need simple. Briar is understated, with just a hint of interest at the shoulders and upper back, and is easily at home on a hiking trail, in a porch swing, or at date night.
Briar is worked in two pieces from the bottom and seamed. Stitches are picked up for sleeves and neckband, which are worked in the round.
The finished garment measures 31(34, 37, 40, 43, 46, 49, 52, 55, 58, 61, 64)in/78.25 (86.25, 94, 101.5, 109.25, 116.75, 124.5, 132, 139.75, 147.25, 155, 162.5)cm at bust and measures 24in/61cm from shoulder to hem.
Briar is available in my Ravelry store now!

Love this! The garter stitch the top looks like it would be great for a bit of contrast if a knitter was inclined, too.
ReplyDeleteI love this top, seriously. I think it's going to wind up in my queue, possibly after my oops sweater is finished. :)
