Flow State is a brioche-ribbed sleeveless top with simple but striking details. Designed without a plan, as a fun experiment, the top’s name is inspired by those times that you lose yourself in a project and become totally absorbed being in a state of flow! The top features 2 color brioche and some garter st with increases running down the center of the front and back. The fun shape is narrower at the top and wider at the bottom with a pointed bottom edge making for a fun, unique layering piece!
Construction: Knit in pieces from the top down. After the Front and Back are knit, the shoulders and sides are seamed. Finally, stitches are picked up around the armholes and an I-cord bind off is worked for a smooth armhole edging.
