Mix Tape Top
Shiburi Indigo Dye Workshop #2 & #3
Granny Square: 8-point stars
The MixTape top was designed to be the "Sound of your stash!" Inspired by knitting with all your leftovers, letting you reminisce about past knitting adventures while you make a memorable top, this top can flex to be made with brand new yarn creating an entirely new memory. Or use your colorway stash alternately with a new solid tying them all together.
