Aloha Lovely Furlers! Summer has officially arrived and I’m excited to share some tropical inspiration with you. I would like to introduce the Meridian Top to you. I’ve been inspired to design a top that can be layered. If you’re heading out to shop, meeting up a friend for coffee, or heading out to dinner you can wear the Meridian Top over a tank top, short sleeve shirt or long sleeve shirt.
For the Meridian Top I used Furls Wander Acrylic Yarn in Dragon Fruit. It’s a medium worsted yarn that has a beautiful shine and wonderful color choices.
