Southern Lights Top

The Southern Lights top is worked in linen stitch in at least 2 yarn colors to accomplish a fading effect. The light fabric is fun and quick to crochet, also the best project for a faded yarn set. The slightly balloon shaped sleeve together with slanted neckline makes this a showstopper. This top is worked top down seamlessly. First the yoke is worked flat while shaping the slanted neckline. The body is worked in the round after joining the back and front yokes. Lastly, the yarn is attached to the armhole and the sleeve is worked in the round. Project level: easy.
