Designed by Kate Gagnon Osborn and knit out of Savannah in one of her favorites, sycamore, Topeka is a seamless fitted henley knit in the round from the bottom up featuring garter stitch cuffs and hem, a placket button band knit on as you work, raglan yoke and short rows for a well-fitted neckline.
Waist shaping ensures a flattering and fitted silhouette and slight increases after the garter cuff makes for a subtly feminine sleeve.
Paired with bright vintage buttons sewn on in a contrast color yarn, the final product is the perfect balance between classic and whimsical.
