During my break with knits on Day Two I decided to cut out another Ice Cream top! Yes before the first was even made, but my faith in Oliver + s patterns is so great that I knew it wouldn't be a waste! I started making it along with the first one but stopped part way in as I wanted to add some piping between the yoke and bodice. Of course the fabric for the piping hadn't been pre-washed, so the top was put on hold while the piping was made!
Really happy with how this turned out despite having the same issues as the last one with the yoke attachment. It was planned for the autumn weather, to be layered with a long sleeve tee and worn with long pants or a skirt and tights, but we've had some really stunning days, with temps in the mid to high 20s (celcius), so shorts it was! Now I'm hoping she'll still be wearing it come summer!
A beautiful job on this! lovely fabric choice too! long time no see :-) x
