The Secret Garden was (and is) a favourite book, and has inspired this classic top. Solid and speckled yarns alternate in stripes like the rows of flowers in a garden. The humble but lovely Daisy hides within the speckled stripes, waiting for the knitter to discover them as they work. This top can be worn as a tank top in the summer, or as a vest over a blouse in cooler weather, and wearing it over a contrasting colour will really make the flowers pop!
