Knits
My grandma taught me to knit when I was 8 years old, but I have really stepped into the hobby since March 2020. A strong majority of the yarn I have is from my Grammy and most of the patterns are inspired by my best friend. If you see something you like, please reach out so we can pick out a yarn for you!
The "Jane"
I always joke that an easy way to remember my name is "plain Jane". This top is a play on that as well. I created this pattern after seeing my grandma in a top of a similar cut when she was my age. Inspired by her beauty, grace and confidence, I took a knit approach to a classic backless halter.
The "Graduation"
The first bikini top I knit is “Graduation”. I chose a yarn I felt I would not miss if I messed up the pattern, and have ended up being totally obsessed with the colors and cut. The matching head scarf really brings the outfit together, and takes my loungewear to the next level. The day I was supposed to graduate from Columbia, COVID-19 was ravaging New York City. So instead I wore this bikini and drank watermelon kombucha with my grandma. The day was increadibly special.
The "Jenna"
This yarn is a yarn my grandmother used to knit a shall for my godmother, Jenna. After knitting my first top, I figured I could create my own pattern for a top, and this was the result. I made a hair tie in the same same yarn, as a practical accessory.
