Soundtrack

$7.50

Soundtrack Top is an easy-to-make layering top featuring 2 contrasting colors worked in a simple (yet entertaining!) slip stitch pattern. Like a catchy background melody, Soundtrack’s stitch pattern is a bit addictive – you’ll have a hard time putting it down!

Soundtrack Cowl

Using the same stitch pattern and color blocking look as the Soundtrack Top, the Soundtrack Cowl uses just 1 skein of each of the 2 colors and is a fun way to work 2 colors together in a fun stitch pattern. If you are beginner knitter, this is a great project for learning slip stitch patterns (I have a tips page that includes a photo tutorial on how to work this stitch pattern!).
