Neat and timeless top, worked in a luxury yarn which feels wonderful to wear and great to knit with.
The main body is worked in reverse stocking stitch with striking leaf panels “growing” out of single ribs.
The leaf panels are also repeated on the sleeves.
the neckband is worked in 2/2 rib and sits flatteringly just away from the neck.
