Hello, my sweet! I hope you are having a wonderful day today! I want to share with you our newest top Daisy. It is great for summer or early fall, and I hope you’ll read on to learn more about it!
Daisy was designed by Debi Maige. When asked about her debut design, Debi remarked, “He loves me, he loves me not, he loves me, he loves me not, he loves me! Oh, for those lazy summer days when you had the time to play the daisy game to determine your future love life! This breezy, little top will take you right back there.”“The Daisy top begins with a provisional cast on and is worked from the bottom up. You will work in the round to the armholes and then back and forth to complete the front and back. The delicate leaf border is then applied to the hem and armholes, and a crocheted neckline completes the picture.”Daisy is an Intermediate level pattern. It is for those knitters who feel comfortable with knitting and have made a few projects, using various skills and techniques. Skills/ concepts include provisional cast on, short rows, 3-needle bind off, chart reading, and garment sizing.
Our Moongleam Fingering yarn is a superb choice for this summer top. It is a soft and shimmery blend of 50% Mulberry Silk and 50% Cotton. It has a beautiful drape, and it’s breathable and light making it amazing for warmer climates!
Daisy is offered in sizes XS through 5XL with finished bust measurements of 28 (32, 36, 40) (44, 50, 54) (58, 62)”/ 71 (81, 91.5, 101.5) (112, 127, 137) (147, 157.5) cm. You will need 660-1725 yds (604-1577 m) based on your selected size. The top is designed to be worn with 2-4″/5-10 cm of positive ease.
You will need 2 (2, 2, 3) (3, 4, 4) (4, 4) skeins of Moongleam Fingering depending on the size you choose to make.
The sample shown here is a size Medium and is modeled on a 34″ bust and has 2″ of positive ease. It is shown in the color Zephyr.

I am planning to knit this sweater, and have read theough the pattern. I have attempted to knit the Daisy pattern, but cannot seem to figure it out in regards to pulling up loops.
I searched for any video tutorials on this pattern and cannot find any.
Can anyone assist in this?
Thanks in advance.
Hi, I am also trying to make this Daisy top and having trouble with the leaf border. I have searched your site as well as Youtube but not able to find any help. Is there a tutorial? Thanks Carol
Hi Carol, thank you for your question. Unfortunately, we don’t have a tutorial for this section of the pattern. I’m very sorry about that. 🙁
Have a nice day! – Johanna 💙
