Knit-able Inspiration

Rhythmic Colour Top

Crochet Inspiration. Machine Knitting Possibilities!

Yes, this is crochet! But take a closer look.

Sirdar's Rhythmic Colour Top is a wonderful example of how working sideways can create a striking garment, especially when you let the yarn do the colorwork.

Make It Your Own

And here's the fun part! Use the Knit It Now Sideways V-Neck Sweater Builder to create your own version.

  • Pullover or cardigan? You choose!
  • Sleeves or sleeveless? Knit the sleeves or simply leave them off.
  • Love those colors? Let a self-striping yarn do the work.
  • Make it fit YOU! Your measurements. Your gauge.

Do You Crochet?

Why not combine the best of both worlds?

Machine knit your sideways sweater, then add a crochet edging to the neckline, armholes, or front edges.

Who says you have to choose?

Any yarn. Any machine. Your size. Your style.

Inspired by Rhythmic Colour
