Topsy-Turvy Knitted Top Patterns: 15 Free Knitting Patterns

April 18, 2019 by AllFreeKnitting

Do you prefer to knit from the top-down or the bottom-up? While knitting from the bottom might be easier for some knitting patterns, if you’re making a top, it’s definitely better to work from the top down. That way, you can sort of try the shirt on as you go to make sure the fit is right, and you don’t have to worry about accidentally making it too short—if it looks a little small, you can just modify the pattern and make it longer right away!

These 15 knit top patterns are all knit from the top down, meaning you end up with the top you want every time. These tops and cardigans are great for layering, so you can keep wearing them all year round! By adding little embellishments—like pretty buttons or pairing them with bright accessories—you’ll have a new spring wardrobe that looks like it’s hot off the shelves when, really, it’s hot off the needles!
