The Riverwalk Top is a hybrid pattern, including both knit and crochet stitches. A beginner knitter and experienced crocheter can achieve this garment. It is worked from the bottom up. The body and front panels are knit as the back panel is crocheted. Fiber choice is a wool/nylon blend and was made for the ideal breathability in warmer weather & warmth in cooler weather; the nylon also provides the perfect amount of stretch and bounce. Other fiber choices will work but may affect gauge. Pattern is given to allow customization for sizes extra small to extra large.
