If anything completes an outfit, its something that you made yourself (or that one of your favorite people made for you)?! Everyday tops don’t have to be ordinary.
The Cleo top is a beautiful and comfortable top that will make any dreary day one to remember. Worked in the round, from the top down, it’s completely seamless. Different hook sizes are used to give some waist shaping and added drape to the bottom of the top and sleeves without any counting.
Available in sizes XS to 5XL with a simple comfy fit, it’s a great top to wear over a simple pair of jeans or shorts. Grab your favorite colors of fine weight yarn and a hook and make some magic!

Knitting with Chopsticks
Hi there,
I’m Hortense, a passionate knitter, crocheter and yarn addict. I created Knitting with Chopsticks (www.knittingwithchopsticks.com) to share my creations and help you make your own.
It’s thanks to blogs that I have learned most of what I know about knitting and crochet. My mom taught me the basics of knitting whe n I was a small girl, bored on the beach (yep, that’s possible when you are 10) and since then I haven’t stopped. Always looking to learn, do more, do better and share my love of yarn, I created Knitting with Chopsticks to make knitting and crochet as simple as it gets so YOU can create what YOU want the way YOU want it.
Engineer by trade, crafter by passion, you will usually find me playing with some yarn while watching the latest episode of Grey’s Anatomy (and probably eating some chocolate, I’m from Belgium, what can I say?).
