The Yarn
Since I was looking for something light-weight I was so excited to come across this beautiful WeCrochet Hawthorne Fingering! It’s so light and airy, but it works up with some great stitch definition at the same time. Hawthorne is an 80% Superwash Fine Highland Wool, with 20% Polyamide, so not only is it crazy soft, but it is also absolutely gorgeous! It’s perfect for this type of garment, and it worked up beautifully. If you are going to make an Easy Cameo Top, I highly recommend ordering some of this yarn, it’s $13.99 a ball, but you can use code ‘CCL15OFF at checkout to save 15% off your order!

Absolutely easy and beautiful! Do you wet block the pieces before seaming?
Hey there! Blocking is always encouraged with garments! Either wet blocking or steaming your pieces will make them nice and straight.
Thank you! I may have to use the yarn I dyed at the Makers Retreat in October…it happens to be in one of my favorite colors – turquoise-y! I knew I was saving it for a good reason, LOL.
Thank you so much. Appreciate all you sites!!!!
