Iris Top: Tester Showcase
Check out the beautiful project made by each of the Iris Top test knitters below! This is a great opportunity to see the pattern worked in a wide range of yarns and modeled on folks of different shapes and sizes.
I am so grateful to all of the test knitters for their help in ensuring this pattern was the best it could be. Thank you all!!
