Description
The Moonglow Top by designer Zanete Knits is your ticket to knitting the ultimate summer party top—effortlessly stylish, endlessly wearable, and fun to make. Designed with warm evenings and sunny days in mind, the Moonglow Top offers a beautiful balance of comfort and sophistication. Its standout lace and cable pattern adds eye-catching texture. Worked seamlessly from the top down, it features cleverly constructed angled shoulder seams at the back and uses directional decreases in the lace to naturally shape the neckline—no extra shaping required. The pattern is intuitive and easy to follow, with customizable length options so you can tailor the top to your perfect fit.
This kit includes The Fibre Co.'s Luma, a DK-weight yarn ideal for warm-weather knits. A thoughtful blend of merino wool, organic cotton, linen, and silk, Luma delivers softness, breathability, and just the right amount of drape. Its excellent stitch definition makes every cable and lace motif pop. Whether you're headed to a summer gathering or just enjoying the season in style, Luma ensures the Moonglow Top feels as good as it looks.
