Sherbrooke Street Top

Add a touch of luxury to your knitting wardrobe with this stunning and flattering color-block tunic-length top. Perfect for knitters of all skill levels, this exquisite piece is designed to elevate any outfit while providing exceptional comfort.

Sherbrooke Street in Montreal serves as the inspiration for this elegant design, known for its fashionable boutiques and vibrant art galleries. This chic top features a colorful combination created through intarsia knitting, using three complementary colors. The intarsia pattern slants diagonally, adding visual interest and sophistication. By incorporating strategic increases and decreases at either side of the color change, you'll achieve a crisp, straight line that enhances the top's modern aesthetic.

The top is designed with a deep U-shaped neckline and is completed with a wide garter stitch border, providing both elegance and structure to the piece. Two thoughtfully placed side slits in the garter border allow for ease of movement and a relaxed fit, making this top a versatile addition to any wardrobe. Knit from the bottom up, this garment includes gentle waist shaping, ensuring a flattering silhouette for all body types. The size range accommodates measurements from 32 to 52 inches (81 to 131 cm), ensuring a perfect fit for various figures.

This project is not only stylish but also an excellent opportunity to hone your intarsia knitting skills, as it involves minimal color changes. Whether you're a beginner eager to learn or an experienced knitter looking for a new challenge, this pattern offers a delightful experience.

Rest assured, this pattern has been professionally tech-edited and rigorously test-knitted to guarantee a flawless knitting experience.

Note: To create your stunning color-block tunic, you will need three colors of any smooth, solid-colored yarn. Gather your materials and prepare to knit a statement piece that will add sophistication to your wardrobe!
