Top: knit by sister, Jeans&shoes: AE, Jewelry: Thrifted

My sister made this top from quince&co's pattern and linen yarn. We knit up a lot of linen this summer. Well this is our new favorite top, we like the ease and that beautiful undyed color. Even though I didn't make this top, it still feels great to wear something handmade. A few years ago we were really skeptical about knitwear. Now, we are both knitting our first cardigans. Fall is right around the corner. 

What do you think about knitting? What are you working on?

I love knitting, but I'm very slow... been working on a scarf for near a year!

What a beautiful top - and in such an organic color, too!

I would love to learn how to knit...someday!

Your top is beautiful! I wish I could knit. I tried so many times in college and just couldn't get it to click. I love sewing and would gladly do it all day long, but there's just something about knitting that I can't quite grasp.

I love looking at all the stuff you (or your sister) make, it's really inspiring!
