TKR RUNUNCULUS KAL
Like so many others, we too have been obsessed with the delicate, textured top Ranunculus by Knit Cafe Midori. It’s been on our list for a while to make, but we never got around to it. So to inspire ourselves and you, we have decided to make it our next Knit-a-long starting June 1st to August 1st 2022.
This quick knit top is great for warm and cool weather depending on the yarn used. It works with lace to worsted weight yarn; Cap or long sleeves; Cropped or oversized. New sizing is available so be inspired!
Midori has wonderful tutorial videos on her pattern page.
